Healthcare for dual citizen w/ US salary living in Italy up to 6 months

Hi all, I obtained my Italian citizenship back in June 2012 in Philadelphia and lived/worked in Milan until 8/2015. I've been back in the US for over 2 years and needless to say I'm missing life in Italy, aside from the salaries of course. I work in tech where remote jobs are quite common so my goal...

Re: Help with dual citizenship - USA/Italy

I guess I should mention that some have hired lawyers and beat the 1948 rule, so there's still hope (albeit costly) if you were born before 1/1/1948

Re: Help with dual citizenship - USA/Italy

You may qualify, but it depends on your birth date. This was taken from the San Francisco consulate's website: Please note: a person born before 01/01/1948 can claim Italian citizenship only from his/her father (who was not a naturalized citizen of another country before his/her child’s birth), and ...

Re: Submitted all final paperwork, now what?

Hi Erica,

I recently received my certificato di cittadinanza from the Philly consulate (appointment was in March), and I asked IPS Italy when I could get my passport. They said to go between 9am-12pm during the week, no need to set up an appointment.

Hope this helps!

Re: Possible position in Milano

Ok that's comforting, thanks! My hope is that the Italian language requirement isn't as strict given most global tech resources do speak English. But I do plan on achieving fluency once I'm there, definitely a big goal of mine. It'll just be a while before that happens.

Re: 1 week away from Philly appointment - status update

I received the translations last night with Gabriella's certification. I spoke with someone at the consulate and they said any professional translator will do, and after reviewing it looks like Gabriella did a thorough job aside from some words that were illegible in the documents (all pertinent inf...

Re: 1 week away from Philly appointment - status update

Thanks! I've never read any negative feedback on her so I'm pretty confident she'll have my documents ready before my appointment. Thanks for sharing the link, I'll do some research. I should be able to handle the birth certs at least. My mother went to Harrisburg and got her birth cert fixed, so I ...
