At Italy Roots and Routes, our mission is to connect you to Italy—whether you are tracing your Italian heritage (maybe with the hope of dual citizenship) or to experience Italy’s captivating culture, cuisine, and landmarks in person. We are dedicated to offering exceptional service, detailed information, and fantastic recommendations.
Pricing for Roots and Routes
Connecting to your Italian heritage can be daunting for many reasons. You may not even know where to start, and that’s where we come in to help. The first step is to have a FREE initial consultation in person, if possible, or via phone/video. At this consultation, we will ask you the basics of your claim. Who is your Last Italian Born Registered Ancestor (aka your LIBRA)? We will want as much information as possible on this person – full name, birth and death dates, any locations you know of, any historical documents you have, etc. At the end of the call, we’ll discuss moving forward, including estimated costs, and I will give you insight on your claim based on the information you bring to the call. Because every case is different with a different number of ancestors, different US states involved, etc. it is very difficult to give an exact quote for my services. After the call, I will send a contract. You will not be billed for any of my time until the contract is signed.
In October 2024, the Italian Ministry of the Interior released a new directive for Consulates and Comune. This new directive is related to the “Minor Issue”. Many people seeking their dual citizenship may be negatively affected by this and this directive will cut the Jure Sanguinis line for many. We have a clear understanding of this issue and are happy to have a call to discuss to see if you are affected. The new rule now requires the first American born ancestor to have reached adulthood (21 years old) before their parent(s) became a US citizen.
