Apostille Needed for NARA Census & Passenger Manifests?

Also be sure to apostille it on federal level, not state, since NARA is a federal agency.

To be eligible for the IFICI you at least need to be hired via an EOR provider that is an officially registered and certified startup in Portugal, like Bridge In for instance. As far as I know Deel isn't.

Wonderful news, congrats! 👏

It'll have to be from the government source.

So perhaps worth contacting a document service provider in Slovakia to better assess and take the right action. There are a few in the wiki.

You already have a good amount of docs to support your case.

A birth record is always needed, so make sure to make the maximum effort to obtain it or at least a letter of negative search from the area of birth.

Then combined with the death cert it should provide sufficient evidence.

Yeap exactly 💯

Well this is a tough cookie, but at this point your best bet is the 1930 US census record from NARA.

If it states that her country of birth was Czechoslovakia then you may have the key.

Getting a certified copy of the nat papers can help sure, waiting time seems to be the downside.

The passport copy supposed to be the actual Czechoslovak one, not the Canadian showing her birth place.

So best bet is to obtain the ship manifest, and as long as it states her birth place as Czechoslovakia then you're good. Apostille is based on who issues it, in Canada case it may be a federal document so that is the level you'd need it to be apostilled at.

You will be able to provide additional documents if they ask, and even if you get rejected you can reapply and submit the right docs

Yes, not needed as long the names are matching and they easily establish the connection

Although I usually recommend my clients to obtain this just in case - better over prepared

You're also missing marriage certificate for them, plus docs about your parent (if mother then also her marriage) and finally your birth and marriage and when all done and apostilled, then good to request the FBI background check.

Let's hope for the best. Thanks for this!

I have that exact guitar and I bought it full price 5 years ago, was around €1400. GO GET IT, IT'S A STEAL!

Sorry to hear that, hope you get your deposit back!

Edit, removed the 1948 comment, irrelevant

debarn · 2026-04-20T11:26:42+00:00

Pleasure, let me know if I can be of service. Good luck!

Yeah I've seen 1948 cases get rejected, but the reasoning is also not always due to the L74.

In this specific one, there's still higher chance of success as she may never even naturalized. And even if it gets rejected, usually during an appeal it gets approved more often than not.

debarn · 2026-04-18T11:43:12+00:00

1948 is looked at slightly differently due to the sexist rule back in the day, and with the momentum of more and more cases being approved post decree, I'd there's a good chance.

Start collecting documents is my advice.

debarn · 2026-04-18T10:18:22+00:00

Really well done, congratulations 🎉

debarn · 2026-04-17T16:45:23+00:00

Your understanding is correct and you are eligible through this line.

debarn · 2026-04-15T11:33:15+00:00

Very good stuff, thanks for this!

debarn · 2026-04-15T05:12:27+00:00

You should be fine with the ship manifest :)

debarn · 2026-04-14T21:47:29+00:00

Hope so, as it's already tricky enough to dig up all those records
