Client Testimonials
Confirmation of Polish Citizenship
I am very happy to say that Eliza Karpinska did a fantastic job assisting me with my successful application for Polish Citizenship. Eliza had to do lots of research to cover the gaps in evidence such as lack of birth certificates etc for both my Polish parents. She has been very kind, patient and professional in advising, explaining and assisting in every step of the lengthy application process. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Eliza and the rest of the team at Genealogia Polonica to anyone else seeking help in applying for Polish Citizenship. Once again many thanks Eliza!

I could not be more pleased with the assistance and research that Genealogia Polonica was able to provide me in doing my family research. The report and information I received as a result of these initial consultations was detailed with explanations and photographs, and exceeded my expectations. Radoslaw continues to clarify the information and answer questions as they arise. I will continue to use Genealogia Polonica in my research when I stumble across dead ends and road blocks and highly recommend them to anyone in search of their ancestry and family background.
