Thank you Carol,? yes, I completed it with my mother listed as NOK.
What is meant by us being "Polish citizens" --is that just a reference term as children of the Poles? thanks Lillian, Thunder Bay Ontario Canada

Hello Lillian and Group,
It sounds as if your Mom is the "Next of Kin" and should be the main one to place claim. As children to Polish fathers and Mothers, we are considered 'citizens" but must still apply. I look at the USA vs. Canada and am not sure how they differ.
Marion,
Work together on the claim and yes your Mom is the next of kin also.
Hope this helps, Carol

Hello Marion,
?
I too, am in the same predicament as you and have the same
question.? My mother became naturalized when she came to
Canada, as did my father who was in the 2nd corps under
General Anders.??Does the property my grandparents
lost--taken by the Russians, revert to my mother who is
still alive (88 yo).? I am not sure how I go about this.
Thanks to all!

Dear All,
If your family lost property in Kresy
Couple of questions relating to the eligibility
criteria:
1 (2) Are the claimants (the owners or their heirs)
currently
Polish citizens?
My mother was Polish but became naturalised when she
came to
England. She is still alive. Is she still considered
Polish? Am
I? I was born and live in London, England.
2 (4) If the original owners are dead, do the
claimants have
inheritance rights?
Owner was my great-grandfather. When he died property
reverted to
his wife, from whom my grandmother inherited and then
my mother. I
would inherit from her eventually, but should we both
claim? Does
she need to or can I? I have read the FAQ but am not
sure it
covers this situation - I presume I'm not an
inheritor as long as
my mother is still around? It would be easier to do
this myself,
but do I then need to get her to sign something first
to let me get
her share?
Grateful for any help, feeling rather sorry I have
left this so
late..
