Question
Hi Rabbai, i am in the process of trying to make Aliyah to Israel and am trying to confirm my Jewish heritage. I have a letter from the former head rabbai at my congregation regarding my confirmation at Washington Hebrew congregation. The current head rabbai seems to be pushing this off. And i am wondering what my options are for proof of being Jewish. I can send you my letter of confirmation in the Jewish faith and its on the internet that David and Sherry Berz are my parents. Is there another approach i can take to secure proof of Jewish faith for my Aliyah documents
Answer
Contact Tzohar which has a special department exactly for this purpose. Contact them at:
