Citizenship by descent · apostille & authentication

Your citizenship-by-descent paperwork, apostilled and in order.

Italian jure sanguinis, Irish foreign birth registration, and other descent claims need a stack of US vital records — birth, marriage, and death certificates across generations — each authenticated with an apostille from the state that issued it. Atlas maps your stack to the right states and handles the apostilles, so you're not chasing several government offices at once.

What a descent claim actually requires

The hard part isn't one apostille. It's many, from many states.

Each record goes to its issuing state

An apostille can only come from the state that issued the certificate. A grandparent's New York birth record is apostilled in New York; a Texas marriage record in Texas. A multi-state claim means multiple offices on multiple timelines.

Records across generations

Most claims trace a chain — you, a parent, a grandparent, sometimes further — and each link usually needs a freshly issued long-form certified copy, not the one in a drawer.

Translation, when it’s needed

Italy and some others require an official translation of each record — and many documents need none at all. When one does, we have it done by a certified translator and apostille the translation too.

Timing and validity matter

Some consulates require recent issuance, and appointment dates are set far out. The stack has to be assembled in the right order, not the week before.

How Atlas handles the stack

One project manager for the whole pile of paper.

01

We map your documents

Send your list and we identify which state each record comes from and what form it needs to take to be authenticated.

02

Texas records, obtained and apostilled

For Texas vital records, we can obtain the certified copies and apostille them for you, fast.

03

Out-of-state records, routed

For records from other states, you send us the certified copy and we handle the apostille through the issuing state — shown as clear line items, no surprises.

04

Signable documents, by video

Affidavits, declarations, or a power of attorney are notarized by secure video and apostilled in Texas — no flying anywhere.

05

Returned in order

We arrange any required certified translation, apostille it with the rest, and return your documents organized for your appointment.

Pricing

Priced per document, openly.

Send your full list — which records, and which state each is from — and we'll come back with one combined quote and a realistic timeline. Texas records move fast; out-of-state records route to their issuing state and take a little longer. Federal documents and translation are always shown as separate line items, never folded in.
