Mahal-IDF-Volunteers.org can not confirm the validity of
documents for
the purpose of Israeli immigration. This will be done by the
Israeli
Ministry of Interior after your first stop in Israel (the
meeting at
the Ministry of Defense). However, if you know for sure that
your father
is Jewish but you do not know how to validate this, please
contact the
Jewish
Agency Aliya Representative for your country which may be
able to
assist you.
***
I am a convert to Judaism. Can I volunteer?
Yes, if you get a confirmation stating that you are Jewish,
signed by
a rabbi residing outside Israel. There is no difference between
born Jews
and converted Jews, all qualify for Mahal IDF programs. The
confirmation
must have a detailed letterhead with name of the Jewish
community, address,
phone, fax and email. The exact name of the rabbi must be
clearly readable.
Mahal-IDF-Volunteers.org does not check the validity of
conversions.
If you want to check the validity your conversion for the
purpose of Israeli
immigration, send the rabbi's confirmation to the Jewish
Agency Aliya Representative for your country.
If the conversion process is not complete or the conversion is
not valid
in Israel, you do not qualify for Mahal IDF programs.

I am an Israeli citizen. Do I qualify for the Mahal IDF
program?
No. Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire might be eligible for the short
path for overseas residents with Israeli citizenship
and
the Tzofim
Garin Tzabar program or regular
IDF service. Note: The regular IDF service called Shlav
Bet, might be shorter than the Tzofim
Garin Tzabar program.
