I obtained a Carta D'Identita from my Comune which shows my birthplace as "Ohio" which is the place of birth shown on my USA Passport ( no city ). My passport has always been my primary identification in Italy including in obtaining my Permesso di Soggiorno - which does show my place of birth as "Toledo". To take the test for my Patente, the Ufficio Motorizzazione Civile di Macerata requires the place of birth to be indicated on the Carta D'Identita. However, the Comune can only accept the information on the passport and is unable to add the city of birth. The only suggestion has been for me to retrieve my original birth certificate from the USA ( I have only a copy ), have it translated and notorized.

I am curious if others have had this problem or whether it is a position specific to this particular provincial motor vehicle office.
