Polish Citizenship by Descent

Poland is part of the EU and has one of the world's best passports.

More than 9 million Americans have Polish ancestry, with a large concentration of them in the Chicago area.

Polish citizenship by ancestry is very open. But not all ethnic Poles could claim Polish citizenship; those whose ancestors left before the independence in 1918 would have had to be able to trace their address in local registries.

Your ancestor could have also lost their Polish citizenship if they became a citizen of another country before 1951. If your ancestors are still alive, they can apply for restoration of citizenship in order for you to apply.
