Hey everyone, first time poster and in need of help, I've tried to find an answer to my question on other threads similar to this but to no avail.
So here goes...
My dziadek was born in Lomza in 1923 and moved to England in 1946-47 as a displaced person. He married and settled in England and RENOUNCED HIS CITIZENSHIP.
I am now looking to move to Poland, (England has gone to the dogs) and I want to renounce my British citizenship, however due to the fact that my dziadek renounced his citizenship I am worried that I won't be able to gain a Polish passport. I know that I can gain one after living and working in Poland for 5 years but I'd rather have one sooner rather than later.
So, does his renouncement of Polish citizenship effectively end my ability to gain a Polish passport relatively easily. I still have a large family still residing in Poland.
Any input is welcome.
Dziekuje :)
