Overview

Overview

Every citizenship by descent starts with the record of the ancestor born abroad. Without it, there is no application.

We start from what the family knows (names, dates, town, arrival ship) and search public archives, parishes and immigration records.

When to hire

When to hire

  • You do not know the ancestor's town or date of birth.
  • Names change from one document to another.
  • You want to confirm the right before ordering certificates.

Why Suman

Why Suman

  • The research is done with the citizenship application in mind.
  • You get an organized tree and the next steps.
