Hello, I applied for Hungarian Citizenship Authentication from Germany, I'm originally from the United Kingdom, England.
My grandfather, originally from Hungary, Budapest was captured and taken to a concentration camp somewhere in Austria. When he was finally liberated, he had a broken arm and the doctors from the US stated that he would probably only have around 3-4 years left of his life due to severe malnourishment.
I found documents from the US Zone - Salzburg where US forces picked him up from.
The next document was from northern Germany, (British Zone) he once told me he saw advertisement signs saying “come and help rebuild Britain.”
A journey and opportunity he ended up taking - the year was 1948 when he found his way to the UK.
He married my grandmother, (British Citizen)
He naturalised as a British citizen in 1955, but didn't claim/get his British passport until 1993.
I submitted all of the documents at the Hungarian Konsulat in Germany - old marriage certificates and Birth certificates - his original Hungarian Birth Certificate from Budapest listing the names of both of his parents, their birth and death certificates etc.
5 months in, I haven't heard anything back regarding my case - I understand the process can take a long time, which is also fine. My question is; are there any professionals that can explain the loss of Hungarian Citizenship, ideally specifically to this case. His Hungarian birth certificate was issued in the Hungarian Konsulat in London and the stamp is marked 1993.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story.
