Eligibility
I have Italian DNA, does that count?
I have a parent/grandparent/great-grandparent that was born in Italy, does that mean I qualify?
Can I get an Italian passport?
My grandparent fought in the war, is my line cut?
My ancestor naturalized, and I see in the oath that they renounced citizenship. Does this make me ineligible?

Will the consulate accept a printout of an Italian record?
I have some name and date discrepancies, will the consulate accept those?
Appointment Booking
Do I have to use a lawyer to file my application?
Which website do I use to book an appointment?
It says that there's no appointments, is anyone else having this issue?
Should I email the consulate to ask them about available appointments?
Prenotami times out/shows just a spinning wheel/gets stuck/etc. Is anyone else having this issue?
This is annoying, can I just hire someone to book an appointment for me?
Can't I just apply at a different consulate that's easier/quicker to get an appointment at?
Judicial Cases
Can I file a 1948 case myself?
Can I live in Italy while my 1948 case is underway?
Where would my case be filed?
Do I need to hire a lawyer from the region of my ancestral comune?
Who should I hire, then?
I was told that I could file a judicial case instead of applying at a consulate, is this true?
Miscellaneous
What is the minor issue? Am I affected?
My Italian citizen ancestor married a woman who was not an Italian citizen, passing Italian citizenship to her. Did she retain the right to pass down Italian citizenship?
