What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas.

I am a US Citizen. Can I adopt a 15 yrs old boy who is currently in USA on a student F1 Visa? If yes, what is the process and how long does it take?

Depends. For starters - are his actual parents willing to terminate their rights to the child?

YES...
You will want to hire an attorney that is experienced in international adoptions. This is NOT a do-it-yourself project. Not by a long shot.
