New Hope from Italian Constitutional Court? Confirms Old Rules are Valid

from The Italian Citizenship Podcast · host Italian Citizenship Assistance

A recent decision from Italy’s Constitutional Court has clarified the status of the country’s previous rules for obtaining Italian citizenship by descent, confirming their compliance with the Italian Constitution and preserving them for cases filed before the March 28 legislative changes. While this ruling does not address the newer restrictions introduced by the Tajani Decree, a separate review of those rules is expected early next year, and its outcome could have significant implications for applicants. In this episode of the Italian Citizenship Podcast hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we’ll learn more about what this ruling means for ongoing and future citizenship applications.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 #dualcitizenship
