Pursuing Italian Citizenship — Step 1

For sometime now I have been considering applying for Italian citizenship.  I thought about going about myself, but after interviewing Giorgio at ITAMCAP, I decided that in my case it’s best to use a professional.  The reason for this decision is mainly because I am up there in years and cannot wait 6 to 8 years for it to go through.  

I learned, from Giorgio, that you can get it much quicker if you spend 45 to 60 days in Italy after your paperwork is completed and you have approval from the consulate in the US.  Gathering the proper paperwork, getting apostiles and translations can still take a significant amount of time, but once approved you are on the fast track.

Step 1 with ITAMCAP is to fill out a short from so that they can determine if you are eligible “by blood”, through either your mother or father.  I was pretty sure I was good, but this was just confirmed by the team at ITAMCAP and I gave them approval to start the research.

Here is my full interview with Giorgio to learn more about ITAMCAP and how to get coupon for 5% discount.
