USA, Canada / Dual Citizenship: American and Polish? [53]
Hi there,
I'm hoping some one can help me with a question re dual citizenship. My parents are both polish and imigrated in 1961. My family went to Poland in 1975 and at that time I was a young child, 5 years old. I believe I had a polish passport, actually I think my parents still have it, obviously it's expired. Since I had a Polish passport in the past, does that mean I already have dual citizenship? How would I go about confirming this? I also went to Poland in 1991 but used a U.S. Passport only.
Another question, I am married to an 100% american, and if it works out that I am a Polish citizen or can claim dual citizenship, can he also apply for Polish citizenship?
The reason I am asking is that I may have a future opportunity to live/work in Europe and am starting to get my ducks in a row as far as having a right to do so.
Any feedback is much appreciated.
