Well, it depends on what you are asking for. There is a space to put precisely what your request is. Unfortunately, when I got a reply, it was a one page index card. I was pretty disappointed as there was virtually no useful info. on it. I was hoping for my ggm's alien registration file. It is best to make your requests broad. Fill us in on the details of what you are seeking.

I'm looking for any information that I can find on Anotnino Pellerito and Benedetto Maola. I hit a brick wall with them too. And any information that G-639 is able to give me to find my family would help me.

Then why not request the complete file and all contents for both? Thats pretty general.

Nuccia is right, make a broad request. That is, make it narrow enough so you are actually asking for something but broad enough so that they don't exclude things. I aksed for the alien registration form and file on my ggm. Make sure to include birthdates of the subjects, and if you have citizenship numbers or alien registration numbers, include those. I did not have any. Include death certificates, unless the subject is from long ago. They said I did not need a death cert. for my ggm because she was born in 1870.
