Full Service
Croatian Connection is fully capable of providing all documents and translations on your behalf.* But, most of our clients find they prefer to locate the basic documents independently or with minimal assistance, reducing costs significantly.
Locating Ship Manifests
The first major issue most clients encounter is locating immigration records of their ancestors which typically come in the form of a ship manifest. Many of these manifests are in archives that are difficult for individuals to sift through independently, but our team has an excellent success rate of locating them. This service does come with a partial refund if we are incapable of locating the document. But if the record exists, we'll find it!
Locating Croatian Birth Certificates
Locating Croatian birth records is often the second hurdle individuals cannot over come independently. Croatian Connection is partnered with genealogists located in Croatia who work wonders! If the record exists, we will find it.
Translation Services
The final major hurdle most applicants face is locating a qualified translator. Most consulates and embassies recommend translators in the United States, but we work with certified court reporters in Croatia eliminating the need for the translations to be apostilled which reduces costs for you!
Application Reviews
Go into your appointment with peace of mind! Application reviews are included with all our services, even if you only needed our help for a portion of your application. But, we also offer application reviews to non-clients at the low cost of $100 per application.
*Despite being able to direct clients to the issuing authorities of all necessary documents, clients are required by law to send the requests for some documents. We are able to walk you through this process when we are prevented from acting on your behalf.
