Buon giorno a tutti!
Please mark your calendar for the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Southern California Genealogical Society's Italian Interest Group on Saturday, March 15, at 10 a.m. PDT, when we will be joined again by attorney and Italian citizenship expert Marco Permunian.
Joining us live from Italy, Marco will discuss the general requirements and process of obtaining Italian citizenship by descent (jus sanguinis) and explain a recent court ruling that might affect one's eligibility for Italian citizenship.
Are you interested in learning more about Italian citizenship by descent? Join SCGS Italian Interest Group members as Marco navigates the process of acquiring Italian citizenship based on having a direct bloodline to an Italian ancestor. Many of our IIG members are interested in Italian citizenship by descent, and Marco is generously offering to share his expertise with us. Whether you are curious about your eligibility, considering applying for dual citizenship, or want to know more about this process, please attend the online meeting and bring your questions for the Q&A session with Marco.
Prepare Your Questions for the Q&A
After our conversation with Marco, time will be allocated for an open discussion period during which group members can ask questions of one another, offer assistance to those who may need it, and share other topics of interest regarding our Italian and Italian American family history. If you recently made an interesting discovery or have a useful resource to share with others, please come prepared to "show and tell."
