Do you or your spouse have a direct Italian Bloodline?

If you’re not sure, we can help you find out!

The most common ways to obtain Italian citizenship are:

(A) Citizenship by Descent (Jure Sanguinis) or

(B) Citizenship by Marriage

For Jure Sanguinis, the tricky part is whether the lines have been broken by one of your ancestors renouncing their Italian citizenship when coming to the US.

We can help locate your family records and assess your ancestral tree to determines avenues available for you to obtain dual-citizenship status.

Citizenship by Marriage may include a few additional requirements, such as basic competence of the Italian language and a BCI check, both of which we are equip to navigate you through successfully.

We also work creatively to provide you with alternative methods if your bloodline is broken, to help you live the Italian life of your dreams!

If you're not sure if you qualify- that's OK. That's what we are here for! We are versed in genealogy and can help navigate archived documents and ancestry information to identify the timeline of your ancestor's US immigration and citizenships and evaluate the Italian line from your family.

If your ancestor Naturalized in the United States, you may still be eligible if it was AFTER the birth of the descendants in your line. However, if they naturalized BEFORE giving birth to your parents, grandparents, great grandparents, etc, then they cut off the Italian blood line and it did not pass down.

Women were unable to pass down Italian citizenship until 1948. Thus, if your line includes a woman and her child was born AFTER 1948, you are eligible. However, for lines born before 1948, it can be trickier and may require going through the paternal line or special help from a lawyer in Italy who can file a "1948" case to help you get your citizenship through a woman.

It can be as simple as giving the names of your ancestors who were born in Italy. But, we can help with that too if you aren’t sure! We are able to navigate archived documents and research online to identify your bloodline and evaluate whether or not you have a route to Italian Citizenship. We take care of the hard stuff, so you can focus on your plan to take advantage of the endless benefits of being a Dual Citizen!

On March 28, 2025, The Italian Government set forth a decree limiting the generations that can claim Italian Citizenship through descent.

Now, Citizenship through descent can only be obtained through those with parents or grandparents born in Italy- the limit is 2 generations.

However, just because you have a parent or grandparent born in Italy does not mean you automatically qualify for Citizenship through descent, however you may be eligible for expedited Citizenship through Residency.

Currently, any cases further than 2 generations back that were not filed before the March 28th deadline, are barred by the generation limit.

Even if your Ancestor Naturalized, or you never had an Italian line to begin with, there ARE alternate ways to obtain Italian Citizenship.

If you are looking to become an Italian citizenship and spend extended time in Italy, there is an option to obtain Citizenship through Residency. First, becoming a resident has additional requirements, such as spending a certain amount of months per year in Italy.

Once you have established residency for the time period required based on your ancestry, you may also be required to pass a test for basic knowledge of the Italian Language.

No! If you do not live in Italy, you will be required to register with the AIRE, which is the agency for Italian citizens who reside abroad. Unless you are applying for Residency, there is no requirement to live in Italy.

If you do live in Italy, you are required to fulfill the laws of both countries (including taxes or military-- for both the US and Italy)

The reasons are e n d l e s s ! In addition to a high quality of life, relatively low cost of living, access to some of the most fresh, cultivated and flavorful foods in the world, and never ending things to do, benefits of having Italian Dual Citizenship include:

• Having one of the strongest passports in the world.

• The ability to work, live, or travel to any country in the EU (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Sweden)

• Ability to apply for colleges in Italy at EU tuition rates, which are about 40 times less than US cost. You can pass this benefit down to your child to study in Italy without taking on hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt.

• Additional advantages for property purchase in Italy.

• Tax-Free imports from Italy to the US.

• Access to medical care & education.

• Access to Italian Consulate while traveling abroad in other counties. The Italian passport offers greater protections and are welcomed in more countries than US citizens.

• Ability to vote as an Italian Citizen, even if you don’t live there.

Unfortunately, there are not enough Italian Consulates in the United States to serve the amount of Italians who need services. That's why we have decided to connect our services with Lawyers in Italy who are able to file the case directly with the Italian government. You are able to do so because, the inaccessibility of the Consulates in the United States is unjustly restricting you from obtaining the right to Citizenship which you are lawfully and legally entitled to through birth. This avenue now accelerates the process of waiting for Dual Citizenship without waiting for to obtain citizenship through an appointment at the Consulate.

In the US, you can only be serviced at the Consulate which has jurisdiction over where you legally reside. There are 10 Italian consulates in the United States-- Washington, Miami, New York, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, Los Angeles, San Fransisco, Detroit.

The Boston Consulate serves: Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.

Yes, it is possible to reacquire your Italian citizenship. However, if you Naturalized before your children were born, they will still be blocked from obtaining Italian Citizenship through your lineage, even if you reacquire.
