Hi, Everyone. Thank you so much for all your replies. So, i want to answer all your questions so you can further assist me, since most of you had questions for me. So, i will be useing my father as the bloodline relative and yes i qualify. I am an American citizen and live in the USA at the moment. Ok, so here are my questions #1- My friend who is on SSDI will they have to pay taxes to the Italian Government, in America they do not because it is not earned income? #2 - I will not be a Nurse in Italy, i will do online work being paid by an American Company, will i have to pay taxes to the Italian Government? #3- Do i need a Visa BEFORE i go to Italy since i may be staying more than 3 months to process my documents? #4- Do i apply for the 'Permesso DiSogiorno' once i arrive in Italy within 8 days? And , can i keep renewing the 'Permesso ds' till it hits 5 years than apply for perm resident in Italy? #5- Can i get a Dual Citizenship after the 5 year residence or i can get the dual citizenship right away? #6- If i do not want to get a Dual Citizenship can i live in Italy forever just with the Permesso di s??#7- Do i need atleast $30k , in the bank for Permesso Di S OR Dual Citizenship? #8- Do i need a rental house or Apartment & show proof of it with the Permesso di S OR Dual Citizenship? I need a rental and proof of it no matter which route i choose to go, dual citizen or permesso di s ?? #9- Will they keep my fathers ORIGINAL birth certificate or do i just show them the original and give them a copy? #10- Last but not least, where do i get all these documents in Italy for Permesso di S , and Dual citizenship? And the reason i want to process all my documents in Italy is because there is a 2.5 year wait in Chicago Consolate. Thanks everyone in advance.
