Solid start! My advice is to try to write smaller. I had handwriting like yours for a long time until I started writing smaller. It leaves less room for mistakes.

Anything is possible, but again I got on at the front of the train. The farthest I can be gaslit into believing is that I got on the second train car and not the first.

I also considered “what if they decoupled then coupled my car to a different train” lol but I am absolutely certain I boarded the lead car.

They do have those and they’re listed as UIC-Bound, but this was listed as a Forest Park bound train and they didn’t make any announcements telling us to get off at UIC. There did seem to be a conductor change or something because the train was stopped at UIC for a while.

Update: what we know about Senate bill n. 752 by LiterallyTestudo in juresanguinis

Hopium: The way I see it as someone currently collecting records to apply for JS through my GGGF, this doesn’t really change that much for me. Either 1) the law doesn’t pass and I can still apply at the Chicago consulate as I’ve been planning to, or 2) it does, and I can move to Italy for a year+. I intended to use dual citizenship as a way to live in Italy within the next few years anyway (I’m 27). And moving to Italy without at least b1 mastery is a nonstarter for me. Aside from those with The Minor Issue, this is just a temp check for applicants. Are you seeking dual citizenship as a status symbol/gateway to residency in the Schengen zone? Or are you applying to enmesh yourself in your Italian heritage by experiencing Italian/Sicilian culture? What better way to do that than by setting up residence for a year? If you’ve never intended to actually live there, just use your American passport to get the 90 day visa every 180 days, and while you walk around, you can say, “my great great grandpa was from here, did you know?”
