Document audit for residence in Poland
Preparing an application yourself? Review the basis, supporting evidence and unanswered questions so your next step is clear. We agree the scope and fee before work starts.
What the review covers
We look at the complete file: what each document proves and where information does not match.
Completeness
Check the list against the selected procedure and competent authority's requirements. A generic list is not a universal checklist.
Dates and consistency
Review names, addresses, periods of employment and document validity, and identify details that need clarification.
Document format
Check legibility, required signatures, attachments and whether a particular document needs translation or authentication.
