Yes it's strange and the President way is the only option but I do find it odd. The letter is from Germany when my great grandma asked about her citizenship in 1969. It essentially says she was listed as a Polish national but after a communication with the Polish Consolate in Essen dated (1931) as stateless. Then goes on to say the bit about not choosing Polish citizenship as required between 1921-1922. She was probably listed as Polish around 1919 when they married.
Doubt my great grandfather would have chosen another nationality as he moved his family across Germany to an area that had Polish immigrants so I assume he may have not known he had to chose citizenship. He was also incarcerated in Dachau like many Poles from that area then they released him and told him to leave the country
