Outstanding interview! Thanks for this. We will be working with Marco on the application for my wife's dual citizenship through descent (also a daughter at the same time). Once that is completed, then I can apply through marriage.
I have a question I would like you to discuss! Could you explain the issues surrounding name discrepancies on vital records (e.g. ancestor has a middle name on their birth certificate but not their marriage certificate)? At what point would you need to amend a vital record?
I was born in Italy and eventually I became a citizen of the United States...Their was a law around late 1970 -80..where if U lost your Italian citizen U can get a duel citizen by applying for this. I received a letter from the Italian consulate stating that I have received my duel citizenship. I have never applied for an Italian passport, but I have an American passport. Will this have any effect on my Italian citizenship. I have traveled to Italy with my American Passport. Grazie !!!
My grandfather was last born in Italy. He has updated all his paperwork with Italian authorities. Birth marriage, divorce. Etc and my father is Italian citizen.. u was born in UK. I would like to exercise my right to citizenship.. but I have been asked to collate this same paperwork that they already have.. is this correct?
Good Program tonight. Are there any problems when an American citizen of Italian decent uses J. S. process and that person is an employee of the federal government? Is there a checklist available for the process and documents needed when applying by J.S. with a male grandparent?
Hi, Rafael & Marco, I have adult children. If I go through the process of Italian citizenship by descent and am approved, do my kids have to file their own petitions to become Italian citizens?
I know this is old, but I think it depends on whether the ancestor in Africa had Italian citizenship after 1861. Not an African Italian subject, but a citizen of Italy (settler).
Great video, thank you! You mentioned the legacy advantage of passing this down to children and that they will only need a certified birth certificate. Does this mean they won't need a consulate appointment? Is their age a factor when they do this?
I wrote you about a week ago. I got no response. My grandmother & grandfather were born in Palermo. I just found out my great great grandfather & great great grandmother were born there too. I asked for your help. I know your busy. If there is some way you can help me get started, I would appreciate it. I just got an email that said it would cost 5 to 7 thousand dollars. I can not afford that. Is there a simpler way? Please I need you help. Do they accept ancestry.com. thank you again. Francesca
If they’re a minor after the parent is recognized, the parent can register their birth records with the consulate and they will automatically become citizens. If they’re adults by the time the parent is recognized, they’ll have to go through the consulate route their parent went through.
I got confused when you mentioned naturalization with 3 years in Italy. What's the difference of getting it through Jure S. or naturalization? Why would it make sense for someone to get it by nat. if that person can get it too by JS?
JS means you're petitioning the government to recognize you as a citizen because you already are one by birthright. Naturalization means you're trying to become a citizen (usually by living there).
Great video! One thing I notice is that you said that your ancestor must have been born in Italy and have been alive in 1861. Do you actually mean born in what is present day Italy. They would have been born in say the Republic of Genoa or Papal States for example....right?
If I Retire with a Pension and Social Security from the United States and Move to Italy more than 180 Days without generating Income from Italy, would I be Taxed by Italy?
Thank you so much for sharing this information. My husband and I are in the process of going through Italian citizenship via his grandfather who was born in Naples. As his wife, well I need to file a separate application through marriage for the citizenship?
I could be wrong but I think you qualify after 5 yrs of your husband's dual citizenship approval but you'll have to learn Italian language (as of 2018).
I'd like to get some suggestions if possible. I'm a 26-year-old teacher in the U.S. and am thinking of moving to Italy and continue teaching math. I am not Italian and I am currently teaching myself the language. Any ideas on how I can move to Italy and continue teaching? Should I start looking for love now? Keep up the great work! These videos are amazing.
You neglected to discuss the implications on inheritance and legacy. The taxes which can be waged on an estate by the Italian Government can be substantial!
Americans are obliged to file because the US has CBT (citizen based tax) and FATCA concerns (Obama signed that one in 2010) The best solution and most affordable for working class Expats is the company MyExpattaxes.com , one of the best companies I have found. I don't work for them, but have been very satisfied with their affordable service.

This was so helpful and insightful, grazie mille!
Great guidance as always. Excellent series.
My uncle paid the local Sargento for a stamp to satisfy his conscription in the 60s. Officially he drove a tank for 1 year

I would like for you guys to go through the 1948 cases which the courts ruled against. And if there is anything you can do from their.

What is needed for children who are 18 years and older for citizenship, if their parents have a dual citizenship
How about if your source of income is online or pension from US?
Can you guys add these podcasts to amazon podcasts ?
Also if you are a descendant of someone who has lived in one of the Italian colonies in Africa would you have any claim to Italian citizenship?
I know this is old, but I think it depends on whether the ancestor in Africa had Italian citizenship after 1861. Not an African Italian subject, but a citizen of Italy (settler).

Marry an italian
Is there an age limit for university enrollment?
No, there's no age limit.

Is this true? Then this is a show stopper on getting my Italian citizenship by descent.
@@jh9992 it is part of the informed choice.
