Italian citizenship eligibility?

Post by jerseygirlar »

My great-great grandfather, Giuseppe, was an Italian immigrant who came to the US in 1905 and was naturalized in 1928. My great grandfather, Frank, was born in the US in 1908 way before my great grandfather had renounced his Italian citizenship which did not happen until 1928 when he became naturalized (I actually found his naturalization application on ancestry.com where he renounced his loyalty to foreign governments). Frank is the father of my grandmother (born in 1941) and my grandmother had my mother in 1966. Am I eligible for Italian citizenship through Giuseppe's line?

Yes, it sounds like you are eligible through Giuseppe's line.
