Arguments Made in Court Against the Tajani Decree
The Constitutional Court hearing on the Tajani decree is the case many families pursuing Italian citizenship by descent have been waiting for. At the heart of it is whether the Tajani decree was constitutionally sound, especially in light of questions around retroactivity, equality under the Italian Constitution, recognition of citizenship at birth, and the impact on those who were already waiting to apply through consulates. The case also touches on how Italy treats jure sanguinis applicants whose rights, eligibility, and access to the recognition process were affected by the sudden change in rules.

Can You Apply for an Italian Visa From Within Italy?
Many people looking at options such as the Italian retirement visa, digital nomad visa, investor visa, student visa, work visa, self-employment visa, or spousal visa start asking the same practical question once Italy begins to feel like a real possibility. Timing, location, and procedure can all affect how a move is planned, especially when early assumptions about what can be done after arrival do not always match how the Italian system works. The issue also becomes more important when comparing visa pathways with other routes that may follow different rules. In this episode of Ask The Italian Lawyer hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we’ll learn the answer to the question: Can you apply for an Italian visa from within Italy after you arrive?For help with the Italian citizenship process and more information about Italian Citizenship Assistance visit ICA's website:https://ItalianCitizenshipAssistance.comFor help with buying a home in Italy, and more information about Italian Real Estate Lawyers visit IREL's website:https://ItalianRealEstateLawyers.comTo contact Italian Attorney Marco Permunian and his team at Italian Citizenship Assistance & Italian Real Estate Lawyers:https://italiancitizenshipassistance.com/contact/https://italianrealestatelawyers.com/contact-us/To see more from @RafaelDiFuria living abroad and life as a dual-citizen expat check out his YouTube channel and website:Http://YouTube.com/RafaelDiFuriaHttp://RafaelDiFuria.com#italianvisa #movetoitaly #expatinitaly

Landmark Win Against the Tajani Decree in Palermo for Italian Citizenship by Descent
A landmark Palermo court ruling came out in a case heard after the Tajani Decree came into effect. It is an important early signal of how the new rules may be approached once they are tested in court, and why documentation and timing can matter when consular access is part of the background. This development helps frame what kinds of issues are starting to surface around Italian citizenship by descent (jure sanguinis), and what may be worth paying attention to as more cases move forward. In this episode of Ask The Italian Lawyer hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we’ll learn the answer to the question: What is the latest court update on the Tajani Decree and Italian citizenship by descent?For help with the Italian citizenship process and more information about Italian Citizenship Assistance visit ICA's website:https://ItalianCitizenshipAssistance.comFor help with buying a home in Italy, and more information about Italian Real Estate Lawyers visit IREL's website:https://ItalianRealEstateLawyers.comTo contact Italian Attorney Marco Permunian and his team at Italian Citizenship Assistance & Italian Real Estate Lawyers:https://italiancitizenshipassistance.com/contact/https://italianrealestatelawyers.com/contact-us/To see more from @RafaelDiFuria living abroad and life as a dual-citizen expat check out his YouTube channel and website:Http://YouTube.com/RafaelDiFuriaHttp://RafaelDiFuria.com#italiancitizenship #citizenshipbydescent #juresanguinis

MAJOR UPDATE: Deadline EXTENDED to Register Minor Children of Italian Citizens Abroad (Law 74/2025)
A proposed change from the Italian government could reshape how families handle Italian citizenship paperwork for minor children, especially for those affected by Law 74/2025 and the Tajani Decree rules on minors. With the text already approved by the Chamber of Deputies and still needing Senate approval, the key issue is how the updated framework would affect deadlines, eligibility windows, and practical steps for parents registering a child through a comune or consular route, including what families should watch for while the bill moves through Parliament. In this episode of Ask The Italian Lawyer hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we’ll learn the answer to the question: Did Italy extend the deadline to register minors under Law 74/2025?For help with the Italian citizenship process and more information about Italian Citizenship Assistance visit ICA's website:https://ItalianCitizenshipAssistance.comFor help with buying a home in Italy, and more information about Italian Real Estate Lawyers visit IREL's website:https://ItalianRealEstateLawyers.comTo contact Italian Attorney Marco Permunian and his team at Italian Citizenship Assistance & Italian Real Estate Lawyers:https://italiancitizenshipassistance.com/contact/https://italianrealestatelawyers.com/contact-us/To see more from @RafaelDiFuria living abroad and life as a dual-citizen expat check out his YouTube channel and website:Http://YouTube.com/RafaelDiFuriaHttp://RafaelDiFuria.com#italiancitizenship #citizenshipbydescent #juresanguinis

ITALIAN CITIZENSHIP UPDATE: Supreme Court Hearing Date for the Minor Issue and Tajani Decree
A key turning point is coming for Italian citizenship by descent (jure sanguinis), as Italy’s Supreme Court (Corte di Cassazione) is set to address the long disputed “minor issue” that has produced conflicting outcomes across regional courts when an ancestor naturalized while their foreign-born child was still a minor, alongside questions about whether the Tajani Decree’s eligibility changes can be applied retroactively to people born before it entered into force, with additional momentum from new constitutional referrals like the recent filing from the Court of Campobasso that signals continued judicial doubts.
