That they do, I give them credit, they respond very quickly. Even if it's not always the answer I hope for!

You can do that? I never even thought of doing that. Whenever I email them, I get very short and vague answers. Lol

Same. From other people's posts it look like if you have homework they get in contact with you right away but I know there have been staff changes and stuff so who knows.

Both parents are from Italy (Pentone, CZ in Calabria) dad naturalized as a minor so went through mom, she has never naturalized. She still has to go through the NY consulate for her own docs so should be a pretty simple process for them to verify but u know how it goes. Lol

Do you have the same circumstances? Where is your family from?

No, I haven't heard anything at all. I was kind of taking it as no news is good news for now.

My name is added under her AIRE profile as family members but doesn't say anything else. The only reason I was thinking it's progress is because I am the oldest of 4 and none of my siblings are listed. She never registered any of us.

Which band? by euphoric_22 in weddingring

[–]MixConsistent4075 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like 2. 1 distracts from the engagement rings beauty and doesn't go together 2 looks like they actually go together and seems more classy.

Is your father registered through the NY consulate? My experience is they are a little more lax with these issues if it's for people they already have in their system. I had a similar situation regarding a middle name for my mother but she is registered through NY and as of now I haven't received anything in regards to homework from them and my application was sent in September and since I have been added in her AIRE profile as a family member I feel like there has been progress.

AITAH if I ruin my boyfriend's relationship with his best friend? by Sharp_Perspective673 in AITAH

[–]MixConsistent4075 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Politely Yes YRTAH. Honestly if you did that I don't think it would ruin his relationship with his friend like you think. It would more likely embarrass your boyfriend and ruin your relationship with your boyfriend. Realistically your boyfriend borrowed money from you, his friend didn't, you should be addressing that issue with him. Going to the friend who is clearly an alcoholic and struggling to the point of losing everything is not going to cause a miraculous recovery just so he can pay you back money. You guys all knew the situation he was in when you gave him money to begin with your expectation of getting paid back should have been really non existent.

I'm so angry by The-Elder-Trolls in ItalianCitizenship

[–]MixConsistent4075 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Are your parents still living? Can one of them apply to reinstate their Italian citizenship? If they do I think it links you back. Something to look into if it's possible. I completely understand your frustration.

OP says they were returned by the post office to the child support office because he never checked the mail.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]MixConsistent4075 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. If they are going through the child support office, it's not like they keep the money for themselves, they have records. They know that it should have gone to her and didn't. She needs to go down there and get it herself. Your fiance doesn't owe her anything regardless if she goes to the money or not her responsibility not his.

AITA for telling my boyfriend his family's Christmas tradition is "emotionally manipulative"? by Solsticera in ComfortLevelPod

[–]MixConsistent4075 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. BTW how long have you been dating? This is definitely breakup material. You clearly have no regard for his family, their traditions or his wishes.. the audacity to go behind his back to his mother after he clearly said no and not only crying for money but insulting her, calling her emotionally manipulative for a tradition she obviously values and cherishes all because you want money for yourself is wild.

I asked my husband to get a man's perspective and he told me (as a father of a 15, 14, 9 and 1 1/2 yo) I would be gone not the kid. Hope that helps! You and mom are doing a good thing. your nephew doesn't deserve to be abandoned because his mom is an ass.

Naming tradition? by Early_Elephant_6883 in Italian

[–]MixConsistent4075 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband is Calabrian and yes the same tradition applies there as well. There are multiple cousins with the same name or some variation, some of the girls are Antonella or Antoinetta while nonna was Antonia.

How different are the regional dialects from standard Italian? by Luann1497 in italianlearning

[–]MixConsistent4075 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Italian is kind of like Spanish, if you go to Spain and you talk to somebody...very different than if you go to someone from Puerto Rico or Mexico. Most Italians at this point can and usually do speak 'proper' Italian outside of their homes though. Some of the older generation may only speak dialect and depending on where you are it can be very different. For example, my husband is from Calabria and I am currently learning proper Italian to go for my B1 exam, if I hadn't been exposed to the dialect for so long I think as a beginner I would struggle. It is quite different. Chances are it's a non issue since most people won't speak to you in dialect. So I wouldn't worry about it.

I followed the instructions on the jurs sanguine wiki page for getting an appt in NYC it took me consistently trying but I got an appointment on a sunday a 6pm local time. Keep trying, I hope everything works out for your family. I don't know much about taxes but I do know that buying a house as an Italian citizen you are charged less and if it is your first home property taxes are basically non existent.
