Not yet... but will let the forum know once I hear back.
Definitely an interesting and good idea. I'll keep note of it. I spoke with my grandmother, and she's pretty sure her father was naturalized...
I don't see how being in the United States as an alien without citizenship makes one not a permanent resident of the country they came from. If...
Yes, at the moment of the declaration of the act, one must be settled on the territory of the Polish State to receive the right to Polish...
This is how I see it: Article 2. At the moment of declaration of the present act, the right to polish citizenship serves every person, without...
Also, I think the consul is right in noting that section 1-A of the 1920 Act is possibly even more relevant, and it simply states: An...

This doesn't make sense to me. The law states that one must be able to prove relation to either 1 parent, 1 grandparent, or 2 great-grandparents...
Sounds like a very difficult situation if I was to approach this issue trying to prove my citizenship through my great-grandparents that moved to...
Alyehoud, I just did more research on what you said, and I'm pretty sure you're right. Because my great-grandparents left for the United...
Thank you for your response. Yes, at the time it was a part of Russia; however, where they were from, Warsaw, lies within the boundaries of...
