How to Get Italian Citizenship in Rhode Island
There are multiple ways to qualify for Italian citizenship, each with their own specific requirements.
Descent (Jure Sanguinis)
Italian citizenship by descent, legally known as jure sanguinis, is a piece of Italian law that allows Rhode Island residents to claim Italian citizenship if they have Italian ancestry. If you have a direct Italian ancestor who was still a citizen when you were born, you may be eligible for Italian citizenship. This path is common for those with parents, grandparents, or even great-grandparents born in Italy. If you’re unsure of your ancestry, you’ll likely need to do Italian genealogy research.
Marriage (Jure Matrimonii)
Italian citizenship by marriage, or jure matrimonii, is available for Rhode Island residents married to an Italian citizen. After three years of marriage (or two years if residing in Italy), individuals may apply for citizenship. These time frames may be reduced if the couple shares children under 18. Italian citizenship by marriage offers a way to share the benefits of Italian citizenship with your spouse and opens up opportunities for the whole family.
Through Naturalization
Italian citizenship through naturalization is another path to becoming a citizen of Italy. This method is for those who have legally resided in Italy for a set period, typically ten years, though the timeline can vary based on circumstances. Through naturalization, individuals can become Italian citizens while building a life within the country.
