In order to provide better service to our clients, as of October 1, 2019, all appointments for Consular Reports of Birth Abroad (CRBA) and adult derivative citizenship applications (first time applicants over the age of 18) will be made only through a mail-in appointment system.

To request an appointment:

   • Completed CRBA checklist;
   • All completed forms and required documents as outlined on the checklist under STEP 1, items #1-5;
   • E-mail address;

   Do NOT send originals of your documents under STEP 1, items #4-5.
