Set-up a visa appointment and take the required documents. Can enter Italy after receiving the Long Term National Visa: https://consfiladelfia.esteri.it/consolato_filadelfia/en/i_servizi/per_chi_si_reca_in_italia/ Then continue the process within Italy: https://www.limonatalounge.com/permesso-di-soggiorno-spouse-italian-citizen/

I think I should be fine as I am also still a Romanian citizen so I can travel freely in Europe as well.

An American can travel freely in Europe.   However,  one must demonstrate more than the ability to travel freely in Europe to qualify for a petition to be filed abroad

Understood. But I am part of the European Union as I am still a Romanian citizen. I should be able to be a resident in Italy as I will be married to an Italian citizen.

From the USCIS Italy field office site:

 

Filing and Other Special Instructions:

Residents of Italy filing with USCIS Rome may submit the petition and supporting evidence by mail.

Evidence of residency must be submitted with the petition. The evidence you submit must support a determination that you are a resident in Italy. Please note that certain pieces of evidence may more strongly support a finding of residency than others. For petitions filed at this field office, you must submit one or more of the following:

• Certificate of residence
• Italian identity card

In addition, other evidence of residency may include, but is not limited to:

• Passport entry stamp
• Residency permit or card
• Utility bills
• Housing lease
• Work contract or other employment documents
• Proof of local registration
• Military orders
• Bank statements
• Proof of school enrollment
• Vehicle registration
• Local driver’s license
• Tax documents
• Foreign property deeds or registration (although proof of property ownership in itself, may be insufficient if there is no evidence that the petitioner resides at that property)
