This caused a bit of storm here, because there are non italian people who were actually born and raised here and still didn't get the italian citizen, while he can't even speak italian - I suppose - got it. 

"Frankie James Grande, brother of American singer Ariana Grande, obtained Italian citizenship because his great-grandparents were (ius sanguinis). 1 million young people born and/or raised in Italy are still waiting to get it because they don't have the right blood."

"I repeat this paradox: an American who does not speak Italian, has never lived in Italy, has never attended Italian schools is considered more Italian than a person of Ghanaian origin born and raised in Italy only because the former has great-grandparents from Molise."

 

 

"I've been here for 13 years waiting to be able to request it but I don't have enough money since I need an income of at least 8k stable per year and I'm currently at university. But he knows how to say Ciao and Buon Giorno, so that's fine."

I had to do that italian test to get mine, even though we married before the law was even proposed, but because we lived outside of italy, we had to wait 3 years and in the meantime f-cking salvini and his buddies passed that law.

Many non italian partners of italians are just giving up on their right to have the citizenship because of the test, either for lack of time or money, and how complicated is the whole process.

Here we go, another bad experience. I'm so sorry for all the people who can't get it. Of course it's not Frankie's fault, I'm just pointing out how our government and laws are ridiculous.

I was thinking on the possibility he does not even speak Italian. I guess many countries permit that as long as the petitioner is wealthy... It's very sad.

sure it's not his fault, if the law gives him this right, he should take it. it's the system that needs to be changed.

I love Italy just like I love my home country, it's my 2nd home and I spend there more time than in my own home country
