Hi everyone--

I suppose the best way to describe this special case is to start from the basics and then work to the details.

I am a 23 year old American who is able to obtain Italian citizenship through 'jure sanguinis' from my grandmother (on my mother's side only). I have gone though a number of check lists to know if I am eligible and no doubt I qualify 100%.

My grandmother was born in Italy in 1922 (still living), moved the the U.S, she then gave birth to my mother in 1963 and then three years later became a naturalized American (in 1966). I am lucky enough to have original documents and in fact I have all the required documents minus translations and Apostilles at this point.

Now for the tricky situation, I have been living in Paris, France as a legal resident for over one year. I am on my own, not married, no kids, not a student. I have all the necessary papers to prove that I live legally in France with a visa and residence permit that is renewable each year. However, living and working in Europe as a non-EU citizen is very difficult. I would like to open my job prospects, due away with administration hassle each year and live comfortably as a Italian citizen in France.

I have done various searches and still cannot find a solid answer to my question...

So my question is: While living in France as a foreigner but with legal residency is it possible to go to the local Italian Consulate or Embassy to apply for citizenship through 'jure sanguinis'?

If there is anyone out there with a similar situation or who has further information regarding my case please do not hesitate to respond or ask me further questions!

Can you get dual citizenship if your dad has dual citizenship?

Yes, in many cases, you can acquire dual citizenship if your father has dual citizenship. However, it's essential to understand that the rules and regulations surrounding dual citizenship vary from one country to another. Whether you can obtain dual citizenship through your father largely depends on the citizenship laws of the countries involved. Here's how it typically works: Jus Sanguinis: Many countries follow the principle of "jus sanguinis," which means "right of blood." Under this principle, citizenship is passed down through parentage. If your father is a citizen of one country, and you are born to him, you may be eligible for citizenship in that country automatically, regardless of where you were born. This would result in dual citizenship if you were born in a different country. Marriage and Descent: In some cases, if your father has dual citizenship due to his own birthplace, marriage, or other factors, you may be eligible for citizenship through him. For example, some countries grant citizenship to the children of citizens even if they are born abroad. Naturalization: If your father acquired dual citizenship through naturalization (the process of becoming a citizen of a country), the ability for you to gain dual citizenship may depend on the specific laws of the country and whether they extend citizenship to the children of naturalized citizens. It's important to note that dual citizenship laws are highly complex and can vary significantly between countries. It's recommended to consult with legal experts or immigration professionals, such as those at TVG Citizenship, who specialize in citizenship matters. They can provide guidance on your specific situation and help you navigate the legal requirements and processes to acquire dual citizenship, if possible, through your father's citizenship status.

What if you were born in Canada but want to get a citizenship for the us without giving up your citizenship for Canada having duel citizenships for both countries is this possible?

Fulfilling the requirements for U.S. citizenship does NOT cancel your Canadian citizenship. Canadian citizenship is permanent, and (unless obtained by fraud) cannot be revoked by the Canadian Government for ANY reason unless you renounce it yourself. Also, the U.S. does not require Canadians to renounce their citizenship when becoming U.S. Citizens.


Can you be an American?

Yes. Unlike many other countries that allow immigration but not citizenship, it's possible to come to the United States and become an American citizen. The ONLY thing that an immigrant cannot do is become President. Even California's Governor is an immigrant; Arnold Schwarzenegger was born in Austria and came here as a young man barely able to speak English. (Shush! I _KNOW_ what you're thinking!) Curiously, immigrants who become American citizens often value their citizenship more than many natively-born Americans do.
