Hi:

Thanks for quick response. My paternal greatgrandfather came to US in 1885. My grandfather was born in 1890. So what you are saying is that if my GGF became a citizen before my GF was born, then the chain is broken.
However, if my GGF was not a US citizen before birth, then my claim is based ...

Hi:

I am confused. My paternal greatgrandfather was born in Italy and came to the US in 1885.
Am I am to claim Italian citizenship based on this alone or is claim void if he became a US citizen.

thanks
