Italian consulates are obligated by law to offer citizenship by descent (jure sanguinis) appointments within two-years, without exception. If you are unable to secure a consulate appointment, this is considered a violation of your rights under Italian law.
This is true for most Italian consulates in North and South America.
If this is you, your best path forward may be 'Against the Queue' (AtQ).

Will You Succeed Alone?

Imagine the peace of mind knowing your case is all but guaranteed.
The Solution You’ve Been Hoping For: ‘Against the Queue’ (AtQ)
Against the Queue (AtQ) is a new, streamlined route to acquiring Italian citizenship through jure sanguinis (JS), citizenship by descent (right of blood).
Italian law requires that government agencies must render a decision on your jure sanguinis application within 24 months. However, securing an appointment at many Italian consulates is quite simply not possible, completely blocking the process.
This, according to Italian law, constitutes a violation of your rights. This violation enables you to initiate legal action in an Italian court. The court then has the authority to directly recognize your citizenship claim.
If you are not able schedule an appointment at your regional Italian consulate, you’re legally allowed to file a citizenship claim in an Italian court. This is known as going ‘Against the Queue’. You don’t need to schedule a consulate appointment and never have to go to Italy at any point in the process.
AtQ presents the best option for many jure sanguinis applicants, far faster and lower stress than the traditional path of submitting your application at your regional Italian Consulate.
Most Important: No consulate appointment. No need to leave home during the process.
Advantages of Against the Queue
Your Entire Family.
Your entire family can be recognized as Italian citizens in one application. This dramatically lowers the cost per person, enabling whole families to acquire their Italian citizenship in a single case.
A Predictable Path.
Courts consistently require the same documents and produce predictable results. Comune and consulates want different documents, don’t understand the process, or just don’t move.
No Consulate, No Relocation.
No need to fight for a consulate appointment.
No surprise homework from the consulate.
No need to establish residence in Italy.
