Does anyone have any idea if/when they are going to reopen?

I still find this worded confusingly on sites explaining it. If my GGF was born in 1902 his children lost citizenship if he naturalized in the US before they were born, but if he had been born in 1899 then those children would have kept their citizenship even if he naturalized in the US before they were born?

Hoping to see if I am eligible!

My great grandfather was born in Reil, Germany in 1889 and immigrated to the US in 1914. He had my grandmother in 1929 in Wisconsin. My GGF did not get naturalized until 1940. My mother was born in 1959 in Chicago and I was born in 1987. Everyone was born in wedlock.

I posted this in r/Poland a few minutes ago and was directed here.

A few years ago I tried to work with a company to reaffirm Polish citizenship through my great grandfather. He was Jewish and immigrated to America in the 20s. I know he resided in Poland in 1921 and I have the original copy of his Polish passport. However, because this company could not find him in the 1921 census they took my 700 dollars and said I wouldn’t be able to get citizenship. I just want to know if this information tracks with people? I can’t believe the passport isn’t enough, especially with the 1921 census being so spotty in certain regions and wondering if I should try again.

Has anyone looked at whether or not the manuscript may be related to this language family? It has high agglutination and few vowels.
