Born in NJ but resurrected my Italian citizenship by using a program they offer when you can trace the lineage and that my father was born before my grandfather was naturalized as a citizen

That's great to hear! Reclaiming Italian citizenship through lineage is a fantastic opportunity for individuals with Italian ancestry. By utilizing the program and tracing your lineage, you were able to establish your eligibility for Italian citizenship. This process is a wonderful way to reconnect with your heritage and gain access to various benefits and privileges as an Italian citizen. Congratulations on successfully resurrecting your Italian citizenship!
