She married in California, her 2 children were born there as was I a granddaughter.

When he went to the NY Consulate before I applied, he was given very little encouragement and was told he needed to learn the language even though his grandfather was born in the Azores. After I got my citizenship through the San Francisco Consulate with no requirements except the paper trail, he took that information to the same consulate and was greeted with open arms with no language requirement and had his citizenship in just a few weeks.

Thanks. Phil Lopes On Tue, Jan 10, 2017 at 11:45 AM, David Perry <[email protected]> wrote: I too had a stumbling block - my father had changed his last name from Pereira to Perry. That would be a "break" in the paper trail and was sufficient to deny my application. Fortunately, I had a document from 1938 when my father legally changed his name using his two brothers as witnesses. The San Francisco Consulate was a bit reluctant to accept anything that old and in fact they had rejected my father's birth certificate from the Azores also acquired in 1938 so I had to get a more recent copy. Anyway, they sent everything off to Lisbon and someone in Lisbon apparently was happy with the name change document and approved my application. My son had applied before I did in New York and was told he had to learn the language, etc., etc. I applied in San Francisco with no such requirement - just submit the papers and pay the money. After I received my citizenship, I sent my paper trail along with my Lisbon acceptance to my son in New York who was then able to sail through with no additional requirements and he received his citizenship in just a few weeks.

It seems the process now is less time consuming. My major stumbling block was that since I had lived in three countries, I had to secure police reports from each which was impossible. The block was only overcome by the Portuguese Consul General in San Francisco securing a waiver of this requirement for me.
