Standing in line at the consulate doesn't erase your right to citizenship.

The Italian Supreme Court has confirmed that a consular blockade is legal grounds for legal action.

• Were you unable to schedule an appointment at the consulate?
• Is the process stalled or poorly managed?
• Maternal lineage?
• Incomplete documentation?

See if there is still a solution.

The 2018 Jabuti Prize will have a new form of award, which will now only include the first place winner in each category, chosen from the ten books with the best score given by the panel of judges.

An author will be chosen as the winner of Book of the Year (Fiction or Non-Fiction) by the panel of judges, based on the highest average obtained. Only the winners of the categories that make up the Literature and Essays axes, namely: Short Story, Chronicle, Comics, Children and Youth, Poetry, Romance, Translation, Arts, Biography, Sciences, Creative Economy and Humanities, compete for this award.

CBL will publish the list of ten finalists in each of the 18 categories in advance. As was the case with the Book of the Year, all winners will only be known through auditing until they are revealed at the award ceremony.
