We live in Canada, and my DW has dual citizenship with Italy and Canada. I am 3/4 of the way to getting my Italian citizenship (allowed by marriage to italian citizen). We are approximately 5 years from retirement. My thought for going through the process of getting my Italian citizenship was mostly around "Hey, it can't hurt" I am curious whether it will help. Does anyone else have this type of dual citizenship and does it help? What are the advantages? Our hopes are to snowbird to europe in the winters, (Probably Italy, not sure) after retirement. Are there benefits to dual citizenship beyond not requiring a visa? I have read somewhere you should always travel with your primary(Canadian) passport otherwise you won't be helped by that consulate if you are in any trouble. Is this the case?
Thanks
