Has anyone gone through the simplified naturalization precedure? by Regwo
I understand that knowledge of the Hungarian language is a requirement, but how well must I know Hungarian? I can speak it just under an intermediate level.
Yes, my keyboard that I was using doesn't have the accents. Felterony and F茅ltorony are the same city (minus my typo of the extra e vs o). I saw the note on FamikySearch months ago, which is why I emailed the Hungarian National Archives. ... Read More

It is in the Hungarian National Archives in Budapest according to the contact I was emailing with. They will not give me a letter with the information you've indicated that would certify it's authenticity. They have given me reference ... Read More

The signed letter you received IS a certification, since the church is the one who holds that document. Unfortunately that kind of exchange is only possible on-ground and not digitally (this is what the person charging 200+ EUR would be doing, just ... Read More

Wait, the relevante page states this: Certificates can be requested only if the birth, marriage, divorce or death occurred in the present-day territory of Hungary. Please note that state and municipal registration has been in place since ... Read More

This is literally *exactly* what I'm trying to do--it sounds like you are doing the same thing my friend did (albeit with forms). Do you know if I can use these forms with a different consulate (chicago) or whether I can just use the LA ... Read More

Hello all! It's been a while since I last posted. I'm back with more questions. Does anyone have tips for getting documents from the Hungarian National Archives? I'm in a Facebook group for Hungarian Citizenship Journeys and I got an ... Read More

This is precisely the case, save for the middle name part. Ah, the naming conventions of the early 1900s. I'm a sucker for sentimentalism, but it's a pain when there isn't much available to prove that they are indeed the same people. If ... Read More

Thanks for the link! I thought I'd be looking at Austria too, I didn't even see the note! It's great that these are specified as Roman Catholic too, as the National Archives help page says they may be able to search for the exact record ... Read More

Hello All! I have been gone for a bit, but now I am back! I have been tracking documents, and trying to find a Hungarian tutor (no luck locally, I may try the resources listed here). A few questions, now that I have everything sorted out. The ... Read More
Anyone out there preparing for simplified naturalization procedure?
Hey Mark, Where are you located? I would love to share resources on learning Hungarian. Thus far I have had a surprising amount of luck tracking documents, so I'm focusing on the language requirement since it's something I can do while ... Read More

Ooh, new question guys! Upon review of the birth certificate that was attached to my ancestor (darn FamilySearch!) it appears like it might not *actually* belong to my relative and the indexed record on Family search is incorrect. The birth date on ... Read More

Thanks guys! Well, I guess now there are a couple new steps then. I'm really worried that my grandfather's birth certificate will hold me up--it is the one where my great grandmother indicated that her maiden name was that of her ... Read More

Thanks for the maps/info csheppa! Zif, I know the naturalization docs won't help in getting anything submitted/approved in the process. It does potentially help track where my ancestor's birth certificate and his parents marriage ... Read More

Hello all! I am just beginning to read this thread from both ends. I have questions I may later find the answers to but I thought I'd ask them here too: I'm just beginning the process. Do I need actual originals of birth certificates and ... Read More
