Job Title French Citizenship by Descent + French Passport – Full Document Preparation, Letters & Application Support (Detailed)
Job Description
I need a professional freelancer with proven experience in French nationality law (especially citizenship by descent / filiation) to handle the complete preparation of my application for French citizenship and subsequent French passport.
Background I am an Australian citizen applying through my paternal grandfather:
• Full name: Dr Richard Henry George LINDSAY
• Born: 11 March 1920 in Paris, France
• Evidence of return to France: Official French police entry stamps in 1937 (Marseille) and 1983 (Saint-Malo)
We have a strong case but need expert help to compile everything correctly, especially to address the 50-year rule.
Full Scope of Work
• Thorough review of all documents I already have
• Create a complete, step-by-step checklist of every document required for the Certificat de nationalité française (CNF)
• Draft formal request letters (in French where necessary) for missing records, particularly the official French birth certificate (copie intégrale d’acte de naissance) from Paris
• Organise and prepare the full application file for submission
• Advise on the best submission route (French Consulate in Sydney or direct to authorities in France)
• Guide on the next steps for applying for a French passport once nationality is recognised
• Provide ongoing advice on the 50-year rule and how our evidence (especially the 1983 stamp) strengthens the claim
• Answer any questions I have throughout the process
Documents I Already Have (scans available immediately)
• Grandfather’s Australian passport biodata page (clearly states born Paris, France, 11 Mar 1920) + French entry stamps 1937 & 1983
• Grandfather’s International Driving Permit with photo and birth details
• Mother’s full birth certificate (Mary Rose Hopkins, born NSW)
• My full birth certificate (born Maitland, NSW)
• Great-grandmother’s South African Identity Card (M.M. Chinn, 1956)
• Singapore birth extract 1884 (great-grandfather)
• Handwritten note from earlier passport about previous Singapore passport (1925)
Budget & Timeline Fixed-price project preferred. Please quote your total price and estimated turnaround time in your proposal. I am looking for high-quality, accurate work with clear communication.
Required Skills & Experience
• Demonstrated experience with French citizenship by descent (filiation) applications
• Familiarity with Service Central d’État Civil (Nantes), Paris mairies, and Archives de Paris procedures
• Ability to draft professional letters in French (or English if acceptable)
• Strong attention to detail with historical and official documents
• Knowledge of EU passport application process is a plus
How to Apply In your proposal, please include:
• Brief summary of your experience with similar French descent cases (links or examples appreciated)
• Your quoted fixed price and timeline
• Any questions or clarifications you need
I will respond quickly to serious proposals.
Thank you!
