FAQ
We answer your most
frequently asked questions
Is joining the waiting list free?
Yes, joining our waiting list is 100 % payment-free, non-binding and with no obligation to buy the course later on.
Is there any advantage of joining the waiting list?
Yes, there are several benefits! If you decide to buy the course, you will receive an exclusive bonus only available to those that were on the waiting list when the course launches. Also, once the registration for the next course opens, you will be among the first to get notified via email. So you can make sure not to miss the launch date of the next online course.
Can I get a refund if I am not happy with the course?
We offer a voluntary 14-day money back guarantee. Just let us know by writing an email to support@myancestorsjourney.com and we will fully refund you.
How long is the course duration?
Once the course opens, the official running time is 3 months or 12 weeks (in line with the 3 monthly live coachings that cover all modules of the course). However, you will have access to all course contents for 12 months , so you can complete it in your own time.
Can I purchase now and start later?
Yes, you can purchase the course once registration opens and complete it whenever you like within a 12-month period. You will have access to the course for 12 months and have the possibility to exend it even further if you wish to do so.
Will I learn about genealogy research in this course?
For the most part, no. Please note that this course is about ancestry-inspired trip planning only. We will cover how to find your ancestral hometowns, living relatives and specialized tour guides in this course. But we will not cover any genealogy or ancestry research questions related to specific documents, complex ancestry research “brick wall” issues, old German handwriting or anything similar.
Is this course suitable for all skill levels or do I need to have done in-depth ancestry research before?
Generally speaking, the course is open to all skill levels and you technically do not need to have done any ancestry research beforehand. Some people just know that their ancestors were from Germany and want to travel to Germany just to experience being in the country themselves. But, if you do plan to visit your ancestral hometown(s) and other places where your ancestors have been or where you can learn more about their lives, we do recommend that you have done some basic ancestry research beforehand. More on that in the next question.
I don't know where my ancestor was from in Germany. Can you help me?
Yes. We will cover how to find your ancestral hometown(s) in module 4 (Your Ancestor's Journey). Please note though that in order for finding your ancestral hometown, you will need to have done some basic ancestry research beforehand. You will need to have some sort of documents, ideally emigration papers, which state where your ancestor came from at the time they boarded the ship overseas.
Is this course for Americans only?
The course has been designed primarily for US-Americans who have German ancestors. However, you can also take it if you are from another part of the world (for example Canada or Australia) and plan a trip to Germany to learn more about your German ancestors.
How long will I have access to the course?
Once you bought the course, you will have access to it for 12 months.
If I want more support after a year, can I renew?
Yes, there will be a possibility to extend the time period that you will have access to the course for an extra charge. More on that once the course begins.
Will I have access to all course contents at once?
Because we are offering a 14-day money-back guarantee, you will only have access to the first modules (1-4) once the course starts. Modules 5-9 and the bonus content will be unlocked after this 14-day period is over. However, you have the option to waive your 14-day money-back guarantee. This will then unlock all modules and bonus contents at once. If you wish to do so, simply write us an email to support@myancestorsjourney.com.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes, you can. You can choose to either pay the course amount in one single payment, in 6 monthly payments over 6 months or in 12 monthly payments over 12 months.
Is my payment secure?
Absolutely. For the payment processing, we partnered up with Elopage – a trusted and specialized payment partner for digital products from Germany.
How and where can I ask individual questions about planning my trip?
While you have access to the course (12 months), there will be one live online call via Zoom every month with tour guide and German native Sonja Irani. If you can't make it to the live call, you can watch the recording afterwards. You will also have the option to ask specific questions in our closed Facebook group. Especially the Facebook group and the live calls are a great way to connect to other ancestral travelers that are planning a trip to Germany. So you can benefit from commonly asked questions as well as exchanging ideas and inspiration for planning your own, individual trip to Germany.
