Before you begin
Before you begin your application you should complete a Membership Interest Form. This will help us to connect you with a local chapter member who can support you.
How the process works
When you have connected with a local chapter member, you can begin your application.
Our online service is available to help you track and manage your application. You can use this service to upload evidence and access support with your research.
To start, register for an online account using the link below (you will need an email address to do this).
You can use this account to track and update your application.
The full application form can be viewed here for reference.
Once you have completed your application in full, it will be reviewed by chapter members.
You are not alone in this process. There are many resources available including our Genealogical Research System, online communities and local chapter contacts. You can find resources on our support pages.
