I fulfill all the qualification requirements except for the 1948 Rule; how does that work and what are the fees?
If you are applying for Italian Dual Citizenship through a "female" line, you may fall in the category of those born to an Italian female ancestor before 1948. The 1912 Citizenship Law granting Italian citizenship jure sanguinis stated that women could hold but not pass citizenship to their children. However, in 1948 when Italy became a Republic a new Constitution did allow for women to pass on citizenship but only to children born after January 1, 1948.
