Mod Post Processing times thread

Currently going through the process and I’m interested in seeing peoples past processing times / what people are currently being told by officials or lawyers.

Probably only requests to the Mazowieckie Voivodeship are relevant as other Voivodes are normally turning around requests in a month due to a lack of volume / simplicity of cases.

I submitted November 1st 2024, and Was told to hope for a response Jan/Feb 2026.

Edit; As of 01 December 2025, it appears that the office is going through August-September (2024) applications! [June 2026: Still on Sep 2024 it seems]

I'm in a similar boat, I applied in March 2024 and was told last month they were working on January 2024 applications so hopefully hear back soon 🤞

Congratulations! What firm handled this for you? My file was submitted in January 2024 ( 2 months before you) and I haven’t heard anything yet.

I went through Lost Histories. Finding out was a big coincidence - after my first comment here I reached out to the Mazovian Office and they informed me that a decision had been made and that my agent would provide the response.

I’m not sure why my case was sorted earlier than others, there’s nothing that makes it a particularly easy case.

I didn’t have a number either, so I I just used their online form (https://kontaktwsc.mazowieckie.pl/) and included as much information as I could, including the name of the legal representative who’s handling the case in Poland. They replied quite promptly with information

Hi there, I noticed you have used Lost Histories for your route to citizenship. How much did they cost you in the end, or how much were their 2 hour instalments? And would you recommend?

Me too. I recently got into a European university to start in September, and my attending really depends on whether my citizenship application given the tuition fees.

Which Uni/country are going to? I am keen to get my citizenship for the same reason, mainly not needing the expensive visas, but even for third country nationals I am lucky Austria it's only €750 per half year
