Extended Birth Certificate

[Walbrzyszanka21]

So I had my interview today and everything was going well until the IO asked for the extended Polish birth certificate (odpis zupelny). Now I called my parents and they are certain that they do not have it. I have my advance parole card so my question is, if the need comes that I will have to fly to Poland, will I be able to? What do I need to do? I have been shedding tears of frustration because I called the Polish Consulate in Chicago, New York and Washington DC and frankly, they were all useless and rude.

I need some much needed advice.

I have contacted my god father to see if he can get it for me but I doubt it.

Don't know if something like this might be an option. But I don't know about this.

Thank you so much. I stumbled upon that same website and I sent out an e-mail. I have some options so I will need to choose one that gets me the birth certificate fastest.

Hope you are able to get it fast!

Talk to parents or relatives give them a letter from you that is notarized in english/polish and then they should go to the archives where your birth was recorded. send it to you via UPS. I am pretty sure they do it the same way as in germany. Your parents will definitely get it for you no need to fly there.

Yes your relatives can get it for you. If not call the local office in advance tell them your situation and have a relative come in with notarized letter maybe also passport copy. Last resort you fly there get it. You will have no problem coming back with AP

I hope so. I am just unsure of how the timeline will be affected. If I can get it to them before Thanksgiving, will they immediately go back to working on my case or will it be sitting there. I will just have to be patient. Thank you mustang.

Well not like right the minute it will come in you said your field office is chicago so it could be a week or two or maybe more. That no one can tell really.
