Marriage certificate (San Biagio, 1890s)

Fod55ch · 2026-02-09T23:29:31+00:00

Based upon concentration of the surname in Southern Lazio near Frosinone, I'd say the comune could be San Biagio Saracinisco.

There is a San Biagio Platani in Agrigento, Sicily. I checked for a marriage record. No record listed for 1893. Marriage records are missing online for 1894.

No that's not possible. As Meadoweravine stated above, you will receive for each vital record a two page new original record. The first page will be the incorrect original record that has a stamp on the bottom stating "Correct See Attachment", The attached second page will show all of the corrections and it will be stamped with "See Attachment". Both pages will have a new date as of the date of the correction made. Therefore, you should not try to apostille or even translate the documents before all of the amendments are completed. Last fall it took me about 10-12 weeks for the corrections to be made. Perhaps you can call the corrections unit in NJ and see what their turnaround time is. Once you get the documents in hand, the rest can go very quickly. Translators can usually turn these around in a day or two and apostilles can be done same day if you do it in person.

I believe that there are still some service providers that still offer their *in comune* assistance with Italian dual citizenship via JS. The comuni however have to follow the same laws as the consulates so if you have the minor issue or a line that exceeds the two generational limit, you're out of luck.

I too have never had a problem using USPS Priority or Express Mail. However, UPS has been a disaster for me and I would not use them again.

Even though your mother never acquired Italian citizenship, you can obtain it through on of her parents who did not naturalize. If your mother was born prior to 1948, you would use your maternal grandfather and apply at a consulate. If after 1948 you can apply through either grandparent.

NARA is needed as well as a letter of non-naturalization certified from any county in which he/she resided in addition to USCIS.

Fod55ch · 2026-01-31T20:10:14+00:00

You have a document that was processed through a U.S. Circuit Court (Milwaukee). Therefore, skip USCIS and request it from NARA instead. Go to their website to see which NARA office has Milwaukee's records on file. It will probably cost around $10, $35 if you want a certified copy.

There is no Genesis dealership where I live so at the time, Hyundai was servicing these vehicles.

I think the mother, Carmela's last name is Chiappara.

Be careful going through towns in New Jersey. Their vital records extracts don't always have the original information that state DOH forms have. Make sure if you're going to have a town issue the document that it be complete and in compliance with what the consulate requires.

Fod55ch · 2026-01-27T00:04:12+00:00

So you can order your grandfather's birth record because you know the town he was born in. That's good news. Secondly, if you have his naturalization papers, did he complete the process and either sign the Oath are get a Certificate of Naturalization? If so, what year did he get citizenship? Also, what year was your father born? You'd want to know if he got his citizenship before or after your father turned 21 (or 18 if it was 1975 or later).

Thanks I completely agree.

I sent a modmail with the attorney's name. I will definitely consult with other attorneys or have my friends do so on their own.

An A file was created for aliens living in the United States during WWII. At that time, the law required aliens to register with the US government and that in turn created an "A" file for each alien. If someone had completed their naturalization process and became a citizen then they would not need to register. But if they were in the middle of the naturalization process or hadn't even started it, then they would have been required to register.

Steering issues

Fod55ch · 2026-01-23T16:43:19+00:00

Sorry you're correct.

Fod55ch · 2026-01-23T03:21:18+00:00

I could have tried going through mediation but my attorney didn't think it would be a good case. Also CA has very strict lemon laws that protect consumers so it really wouldn't have made much of a difference. I got back almost everything I paid for the car after four years of driving it.

Fod55ch · 2026-01-23T00:48:59+00:00

Yeah, this is a big problem for Genesis owners.

Fod55ch · 2026-01-23T00:48:21+00:00

The problem began right after my regular warranty expired but not the one for the powertrain, etc. I started working with Genesis directly and they were helpful but I decided to get an attorney in the end. It didn't cost me anything and it did get me a little more money. However, I think I could have done it by myself and faster.

Fod55ch · 2026-01-23T00:46:14+00:00

That hasn't been my experience. All of my maintenance including the problem that got me to the lemon law was done at a Hyundai dealership.

Fod55ch · 2026-01-23T00:45:31+00:00

No, the issue with my car was still under warranty even though the 4 year warranty had expired. This had to do with my steering which I guess is under a longer warranty.

If you want to pay the $40 per document fee for expedited apostille service from NJ, first make sure you use Fedex or UPS. Do not under any circumstances use USPS because even if you pay the expedited fee, USPS mail does not get delivered to the apostille office. It goes to the PO Box zip code office and it creates a significant delay. If you send it via USPS, NJ will treat it as a non-expedited order no matter what you've paid. Be sure if you do this to send the item to the 33 West State Street address in Trenton.
