Law / Length of time to receive confirmation of Polish Citizenship [26]

hmmm, interesting.

some people say 6 months some, some people say 2 years.

after that i know i have to get my polish birth certificate and then once i get, i can apply for a PESEL number and then finally the holy grail...........the Polish Passport.

Im going to poland next year for 6 months to work. I read somewhere that once i get my citizenship i can apply for a temporary passport from the consulate. Can anyone tell me if they know anything about this.

Law / Length of time to receive confirmation of Polish Citizenship [26]

Lets hope Zed is correct. I want to head to poland mid next year and so by then it would have been 15 months since completion of application.

I can understand why for some people it takes a long time because the have grandparents that were polish and have to go through a rigorous checking process. But my case is much simpler. I have all the documents they need:

- both parents polish birth certificates
- their polish marriage certificate
- dads current valid polish passport and PESEL number
- both parents polish passports from 1982 (long time ago, but helps with the identification)

and all of my parents and my Australian documents.

Also. Does anyone know how long it takes to get a "Polish Birth Certificate" from the completion of application. I heard it only takes a couple months.
