Hi -

I'll update this post/thread as I gather my data and information for inheriting Italian citizenship via my mother's family who lived in Argentina.

Get birth, marriage, and death certificates from Argentina using this form: http://www.gob.gba.gov.ar/registro/documentos/formExt.pdf

Yup, thanks! Checked out that site a few times, but it doesn't seem to have much information about Argentina and what set of documents I would need in the event of no naturalization.

I'm going to be googling quite a bit to see what the process is for Argentine citizens to acquire Italian ...

Hi -

My mother was born in 1949 (after the cut off date of 1/1/1948) in Argentina and never became a US citizen (she is legal permanent resident of the US).

Her mother (my grandmother) was born in Argentina.

Her parents (my great grand mother and father) were Italian citizens who moved to ...

Hi -

My grandfather was born in Sassano, Italy and came to the US when he was 2 years old.

According to my entire family, he never got US citizenship.

I'm trying to file a FOIA request, and I have a certified copy of his Death Certificate. On the G-639 PDF I checked off the "Deceased Subject ...
