New Rules for Filing Immigrant Visa Petitions in Poland

The U.S. Embassy in Warsaw would like to inform you of a rule change affecting U.S. citizens residing in Poland who wish to file immigrant visa petitions for their relatives.  Most U.S. citizens residing in Poland will now need to file petitions by mail directly with United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).  As of August 15, 2011, the Embassy in Warsaw and Consulate General in Krakow no longer accept immigrant visa petitions, except in limited circumstances.  We encourage you to visit the Embassy’s Immigrant Visa Unit web page for details of this change.

Warning

 The Embassy is investigating a possible e-mail scam targeting American citizens by posing as the Embassy’s American Citizen Services section.  The scam seeks to solicit money from unsuspecting American citizens for the safe return to the United States of a loved one. Please be advised that the only authentic e-mail address for the American Citizen Services section is ACSWarsaw@state.gov, and disregard all other e-mail addresses claiming to represent this section.

Security Screening
 
All applicants must clear the security screening before entering the Consular Section. Please read more about the security screening at the Embassy. 

Child Travelers 

Due to the increasing incidents of child abductions and abuse, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) strongly recommends that if the child is accompanied by only one parent or a guardian, the adult should  have a note from the other parent or both parents.  For more information, please see the CPB website.
