become an Italian citizen

I just need 4 more documents to be ready to submit my application for citizenship!

Ever since I studied in Italy I heard about getting Italian citizenship through ancestry and wanted to see if I would qualify. Every time I looked into it though the whole process just seemed way too complicated. I always meant to get around to it but never did.

Then, I got an awesome roommate who is into genealogy and started the process by finding out that I am eligible due to the timeline of my great grandparents getting naturalized and my grandfather being born. I have since started ordering all the documents that I need to prove my lineage. Once I have everything I will send the application for my citizenship. I figure it should take another month or so to have all the documents.

This is beyond exciting! Not only will I have Italian citizenship but EU citizenship!
