Ok I got a really searious problem.. please help????

Question

Ok I was born in Italy. My mom was Mexican and my dad was German. I don't want to live in Italy any more, In which country of my origin would I be considered a citizen?

Answer 1

Hell, if mom is mexican, why not call the USA home?

Answer 2

What's wrong with Italy? Oh right, mandatory military service I suppose. And you have neither German nor Mexican citizenship (yet). Hm. Depending on your age and how long you have lived in Italy (or outside Germany or Mexico), you may have missed your chance to claim citizenship by birth. The internet sites of those embassies in Italy (and that of the German government since there is no embassy) should give you plenty of advice as to how to go about claiming your (naturalized) citizenship. Pssst. I'd go for Germany too, that way you can go back to Italy as often as you like. Good luck! NB: I revised this answer

Answer 3

I presume you have an Italian passport. With this you have the right to live and work in any EU country, including Germany. After a longish period of trouble-free residence, you could obtain citizenship for your chosen EU country if you wished, but each has its own rules and restrictions.

Most likely you could acquire German and probably Mexican citizenship on grounds of ancestry, but you need to check with the Embassies of those two countries, as again every country makes up its own rules!

Answer 4

if i remember correctly from high school, which i might not, i don't think it matters where your parents are from. what matters is the country you were born in. i'm an American because i was born in America, but had i been born in like Germany or something even tho both my parents are American i would have been a German citizen. Your best bet is probably to find the goverment agencies in both Italy and whatever countries you might want to move to or live in and see what the goverments say you need to do.

Answer 5

Probably NEITHER ~ it is where you were born that you are a naturalized citizen. You will have to apply for citizenship whereever you chose to live (and become a citizen). You can live anywhere and not become a citizen. ie in the USA, born in the USA then a citizen of the USA regardless of where my parents were born or where they are citizens. Some countries allow DUAL citizenship - not sure which ones, but you could GOOGLE it and see.

Answer 6

Actually, when you turn 18(in the US anyway) is when you claim your "citizenship". My older brother was born in England, both our parents are US citizens. When he was 18, he filled out paperwork to claim US citizenship. He could have claimed English/British if he wanted. I'm not sure of the regulations for those two countries.

Answer 7

Well I think you know German and also you know Spanish too.. Why don't you go to this countries for about a month like vacation in different places and then you can decide.

Answer 8

Personally, I think you would be better off going German, but go to the Consulates office in Italy and presend your question and see what options they give you. Good Luck.

Answer 9

Probably Germany because your dad was dominant because your a boy and that means you're more german see what im saying if not keep reading,... Since you are a boy and your dad is a boy that means your dad was the dominant one in genes so you would probably be excepted in germany more otherwise it dosnt really matter probably either one

Answer 10

I'd be a German over a Mexican -- shoot for that.

Answer 11

u can move to the US and marry somew eird girl who can get ur green card
