Can I apply for dual citizenship for Italy....?
Find answers to your legal question.





Can I apply for dual citizenship for Italy....?

I am born in the U.S. from French parents. I currently have dual citizenship with France. But can I apply for Italian citizenship If my Great-Grand mother was born in Italy and later moved after a year of birth to France. This is from my mom side and she was born after 1900 and before 1940. So can I apply for italian citizenship or no in this case?
Additional Details
my great-grandmother was probably born in 1920s not sure

Sorry for all the lame answers you are receiving. Where do people get this stuff, I wonder?

Here is a very nice web page that will help you determine if you are entitled to Italian citizenship.
http://www.italiandualcitizenship.com/

And by the way, the US, France and Italy all recognize dual or multiple citizenship. So if you are entitled, you can be all three.
http://www.multiplecitizenship.com/wscl/ws_ITALY.html
http://www.multiplecitizenship.com/wscl/ws_FRANCE.html
http://www.multiplecitizenship.com/wscl/ws_USA.html
http://www.travel.state.gov/law/citizenship/citizenship_778.html
(In reality, it is far harder to lose US citizenship than this last page indicates: you have to WANT to give it up.)

dual citizenship applies to people born in Italy and later became naturalized in other countries

It is possible that you may qualify, more info would be required to know for sure. (I just cheated and asked my wife who asists professional soccer players in obtaining Italian citizenship)

sorry you have to be second generation removed for naturalized citizenship like that. you could use your french citizenship to get a job in italy and then apply for citizenship after you have lived there for a while or marry an italian.

Nope, if you are 18 or over and have US citizenship, you must decide between them


Big Blair
Once you turn 18, you must renounce your US citizenship to become a citizen of another country. You can only have dual citizenship if you are by default a citizen of another country (for instance, anyone of the Korean race is a Korean citizen, regardless of whether they are born in the states or not). So if you want to actually apply for Italian citizenship, you can no longer be a US citizen.
