La comunidad judía en la Viena de entreguerras fue la tercera comunidad judía más grande de Europa y 200.000 judíos, aproximadamente, vivían allí antes de la II Guerra Mundial. El "Anschluss" -la anexión de Austria a la Alemania nazi, en marzo de 1938- supuso una abrupta parada en esta floreciente comunidad. La comunidad oficial -Vienna Israelitische Kultusgemeinde (IKG)- fue cerrada temporalmente por los nacionalsocialistas y después de su reapertura, en mayo de 1938, los judíos que vivían en Austria tuvieron que registrarse en el Departamento de Emigración de IKG para salir del país y escapar de la persecución nazi. Each head of household had to fill out a detailed questionnaire, containing the following information: name of the applicant, address, date of birth, place of birth, marital status, nationality, residency status in Vienna and whether and how long the applicant resided elsewhere, information about the profession and the last-held professional position, any newly learned professions, language skills, economic situation and monthly income, as well as additional comprehensive information related to emigration. This emigration-related data includes information about the applicant’s possibility to obtain the necessary papers for emigration, the emigration destination, personal plans abroad, financial resources for emigration, relatives, and friends abroad, especially in the destination country (including name, address, and degree of kinship), references and passport information. In addition to the information about the applicant, the questionnaires contain information about any dependents, including degree of relationship, name, places of birth, dates of birth and occupation. In some cases, the questionnaires also provide information about the applicant's parents. These "emigration sheets" form one of the most informative collections of personal data on Austrian Jews from 1938/39. The forms are often supplemented by additional documents, including letters, affidavits, official papers and correspondence, as well as stamps and hand-written notes, that were added as part of the file processing. The forms were not used only for acquiring the possibility to flee from Vienna, and the information contained in the questionnaires was used later by the National Socialists for the systematic expulsion, expropriation, and subsequent deportation of Jews in Austria. More than 80 years later, this magnificent dataset of emigration files has a third destination, enabling our generation to trace back family history. The emigration papers are part of the extensive communal archive of the Viennese Jewish Community, which is part of the holdings of the Central Archives for the History of the Jewish People (CAHJP) in Jerusalem. Imaging of this project was completed in partnership with the National Library of Israel.
