Dual Passport (attorney, living, dual citizenship)

[4l3x0Rt1z]

I searched the site and found some helpful information, however I did not find the answer to my question.

My mother was born and raised in Greece and moved here when she married my father (US Citizen). She still maintains her Greek citizenship.

Do I have the option to obtain dual citizenship via my mother being a Greek citizen?

I will call the Greek Consul tomorrow, but I wanted to see if I could get an answer before then.

Thank you!

No one picked up at the consul. So no one knows anything regarding this?

I dont know how it is in Greece, but as I am irish ; born there and raised there. I moved to usa when I was 20 and after a few years got my citizenship. I hold both passports. My children can do the same.

Good luck
