From the Expats in Italy site:
“First, you must determine whether or not you actually qualify for jure sanguinis.
Below is a list that should get you started then log onto
www.italiandualcitizenship.com/ for more in depth information:
- Your father was an Italian citizen at the time of your birth and you never renounced your rights to Italian citizenship ...
- Your mother was an Italian citizen at the time of your birth, you were born
AFTER January 1, 1948 and you never renounced your rights to Italian citizenship.
- Your father was born in the USA, his father was an Italian Citizen at the time of

Re: antonio gigliotti info.
so, he was naturalized officially in the 1930 consensus. elizabeth (my grandmother) was born in 1922. this makes me eligable. correct???
Re: antonio gigliotti info.
Looking at the papers closer - 1920 census, he has PA written, meaning 1st papers filed, and in line 15, it is blank, stating to me that he wasnt naturalized yet.
in the 1930 census, he has NA, naturalized. i will check with family to see what year exactly, if they know? maybe my aunt has his naturalization paperwork?
