What is the name of your state? WA
I have a daughter that is German National. I have supplied her with documentation to get her dual citizenship. I would like to adopt her sister. Her sister is 35, lives in Louisiana and has 8 years left on her "resident visa", however she may be divorcing soon.
How would a divorce affect her visa status?
If I adopt her, what would be the procedures for her to become an American Citizen?
Does she have to live in the same state the adoption would take place, or would I have to move to Louisiana?
Do you know of an attorney that may have done this kind of adoption before?
What is the "ball park" figure for an adoption of this sort?
