Question about the declaration that living/deceased ascendants did not renounce Italian citizenship.

[Menefreghista]

Here is my situation. I’m in the process of filling out the necessary paperwork for my appointment at the Philadelphia Consulate. My grandmother was born in Italy, and was naturalized in 1950 (My grandmother is still alive). My father was born in the USA in 1948 (My father has passed away).

I am confused as to whether or not I fill out form 3, using my grandmother’s information, “living Italian ascendant” or form 4, using my father’s information, who was born and raised in the United States, as my “deceased Italian ascendant,” OR BOTH?

FORM #3 = https://consfiladelfia.esteri.it/resour ... 7form5.pdf
FORM #4 = https://consfiladelfia.esteri.it/resour ... 7form4.pdf

I am particularly confused because I am under the impression that once my grandmother was naturalized as an American, that she was no longer considered “Italian,” but since my father was born before her naturalization, I qualify for Italian Citizenship.

Can someone PLEASE explain what steps, exactly, I need to take regarding this aspect of the application process?

Your must provide info for both your deceased direct ascendant (father) and your living ascendant (grand-mother).

Your must provide info for both your deceased direct ascendant (father) and your living ascendant (grand-mother).

Ok, and do I need to provide all of the exact addresses, or will a list of the cities/towns lived in be sufficient?

Cities, towns, states should be OK.
