Hello. I am looking for information and firsthand experience from anyone, especially American, who got Slovenian citizenship through ancestry past the second degree. On the government website it says a person can apply for citizenship if "they are a Slovenian expatriate or a descendant thereof in a direct line up to the fourth degree and have actually resided in Slovenia for a continuous period of at least one year prior to submission of the application". Several of my great grandparents were from Slovenia and I am hoping, if I can get the proper documents, that will qualify me. Has anyone else gone through this process who can give me some advice on their experience or how feasible this actually is? I have been to Slovenia a couple times and it is a beautiful, wonderful country. Thank you.

Only grandparents count and you need proof/report that you have been active at least 5 years in slovenian cultural minority clubs in your country. There is also a plethora of other requirements…
You really thought you can be given citizenship just because your greatgrandpappy was ethnic slovenian?
