Jure Sanguinis

[gooch]

Hi everyone.

My father was born in the USA and gained his dual Italian citizenship as an adult through Jure Sanguinis - his great grandfather was born in Italy.

Can I apply through Jure Sanguinis using him as my path, meaning, just proving my path back to him at the consolate, with his Italian citizenship info, his birth cert and marriage license, and my birth certificate showing my relationship to him?

Or, do I also have to gather and use all the marriage licenses, birth certificates, etc. back to his great grandfather?

Edit: I am not a minor, I am over 21.

Thank you.

Most consulates will use the paperwork submitted by your father if you are applying at the same consulate. If you are going through a different consulate, you will likely need to provided a full document set.
