Understanding eligibility for Italian citizenship in 2025 is more important than ever, especially for those applying through Italian citizenship by descent/ancestry. The minor issue continues to affect applications through Italian consulates and municipalities, but many people still qualify through the Italian courts or by applying through a different ancestor than they originally thought of using. In this follow-up episode of the Italian Citizenship Podcast, hosted by Italian attorney, Marco Permunian, and dual citizen expat podcaster, Rafael Di Furia, we break down the latest updates, how to find out if you are eligible for Italian citizenship, and what options exist for those with a 1948 case, an ancestor who never naturalized, or situations where an ancestor naturalized while their child was a minor.
