Hi,
I'm non-Jewish US citizen.
I just got married to Jewish lady from Europe. She is Jewish on dad's side only.
We were planning to make Aliyah in September 2012.
As she filed her paperwork in Europe, her request was denied because she does not have original document of her dad birth certificate.
Her dad died already several years ago and as far as she knows his original birth certificate was lost during 2nd WW.
I was wondering do we have better change to apply again in Israel or do we really need to have her dad's original birth certificate?
Thank you,
Jess
