Insights For Our Clients
Our firm will participate, aiming to contribute with insights on important implications for US citizens of Italian descent in particular, such as the topic of naturalization, which does not affect descendants from other geographical locations in the same way, especially South America.
In the USA, the naturalization of emigrants from Italy and other countries in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries was necessary to participate in civic and everyday life. These naturalizations were registered and preserved in minute detail, unlike in other countries such as Brazil and Argentina.
This is a serious obstacle for descendants who wish to claim their Italian citizenship in the here and now because the law today prohibits the ancestor from being naturalized (as well as limiting the number of generations of foreign-born ancestors). The two issues before the Constitutional Court on March 11 concern only the generational length, not naturalization. Therefore, even if the generational issue is resolved, the obstacle of the ancestor’s naturalization remains for US citizens.
We continue to represent and fight for them, for you.
