Comment on Confirming Polish Citizenship and Getting Polish ID Card by JohnK

I started the application process to get a Polish Passport and what a process it was.

First my Dad had to apply for his citizenship as you can not jump a generation. That took close to 6 years. It only took me about 6 months to get mine, after my father had his.

Now I am in the process of registering my birth in Warsaw, next I will need to get a Polish Birth-Certificate (I had to send in my original Australian one with a translation in Polish:the first translation was not accepted by the embassy even though it was done by a registered translator). After I get this, and still waiting, I can apply for a Pesel number and then a passport. It is a long process.

Now I am concerned that they will keep my Australian birth certificate. Does anyone know if this is the case?

Secondly can I enter Poland with my Australian passport and will there be any troubles there, given that I have Polish citizenship.

A long and expensive process and hopefully worth it!!

Welcome to the Leki Gorne google satellite map! This place is situated in Debica, Podkarpackie, Poland, its geographical coordinates are 49° 59′ 0″ North, 21° 11′ 0″ I found the passenger list for our Stanislaus Sas that shows in 1883 his residence was Leki Gorne Poland. What area is this. Is this in Galicia. Help. This is the first clue of where he came from. His census in US shows Austria/Poland.
