Italian vs Irish Citizenship By Descent (Up to a Great Grandparent)

Claiming Italian citizenship by descent is relatively straightforward with no generational limits, as long as specific conditions about your ancestors' birth and naturalization dates are met. In contrast, getting Irish citizenship through great-grandparents can be more restrictive in some aspects and usually requires strong ties to Ireland, sometimes even a period of residency. While you don't necessarily need a lawyer, it's a good idea to have one to ensure all your paperwork is in order, especially for more complex cases. In this episode of the Italian Citizenship Podcast, hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we’ll explore the differences and intricacies of claiming Italian and Irish citizenship through descent.For help with the Italian citizenship process and more information about Italian Citizenship Assistance visit ICA's website:https://ItalianCitizenshipAssistance.comTo contact Italian Attorney Marco Permunian and his team of dual-citizenship experts and attorneys you can use the contact form on the Italian Citizenship Assistance website:https://italiancitizenshipassistance.com/contact/To see more from Rafael Di Furia about life in Italy and life as a dual-citizen expat check out his YouTube channel and website:Http://YouTube.com/RafaelDiFuriaHttp://RafaelDiFuria.com#italiancitizenship #italiandualcitizenship #italiancitizenship Topics & Timestamps:0:00 – Intro & Opening Thoughts0:51 - Italian citizenship through a great-grandparent.6:27 - Getting Irish citizenship through your great-parents10:11 - Are there any other ways to demonstrate your connection to Ireland?11:10 - What are the fees for this application?
