In this episode of the Italian Citizenship Podcast hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we’ll learn more about what this proposed bill could mean for the future of applying for Italian citizenship and how it may eventually impact those navigating the process of obtaining Italian citizenship by descent.For help with the Italian citizenship process and more information about Italian Citizenship Assistance visit ICA's website:https://ItalianCitizenshipAssistance.comTo contact Italian Attorney Marco Permunian and his team of dual-citizenship experts and attorneys you can use the contact form on the Italian Citizenship Assistance website:https://italiancitizenshipassistance.com/contact/To see more from Rafael Di Furia about life in Italy and life as a dual-citizen expat check out his YouTube channel and website:Http://YouTube.com/RafaelDiFuriaHttp://RafaelDiFuria.com#italiancitizenship #italiandualcitizenship #dualcitizenshipTopics & Timestamps:0:00 – Intro & Opening Thoughts1:02 - Bill released on June 6th, 20257:38 - If the bill passed, would the rules be the same for Italian citizenship by descent?8:17 - Would a singular centralized office be efficient?11:42 - If the bill passed, would this office process 1948 cases?13:56 - Closing Thoughts & Outro
