Review of Consulate General of Italy - N...

The worst bureaucracy in the world, is the Italian one.
1 year ago my son was born in NYC, I'm trying since then to giving him the double citizenship.
Forget about it, I don't stay here listing all the the things that went wrong, but long short story:
- I had to give the original married certificate to register myself and my wife marriage in Italy too
- then I had to provide the original birth certificate to register my son at the Aire
Despite the confirmation form the Aire website and those efforts (because these guys are open just in the morning of course, you have to take 1-2 hours off at work, in 2020 is not possible to do anything online yet..) I discovered that either, my marriage nor my son are registered in Italy.

Wasted time.

Conclusion? My son is American citizen, proudly not Italian. #ashamedtobeitalian
