我剛考古 "美國公民過繼國內弟弟子女", 發現這個網站

https://www.hooyou.com/cn_version/adoption/hagueinfo.html

Q1:  ”美國公民夫婦過繼國內弟弟 12 歲兒子“， 是不是按這個網站上的 ”公約領養“ 一類走？

       遺憾沒看到網站上有“親屬領養”一類。 

Q2:  弟弟12歲的兒子在我的監護和與我居住兩年的證明， 這樣要求是必須的嗎？ 

-You can choose either one of the two processes to adopt your brother's son:

1. You can use the Hague adoption process. Good: the child does not need to live toegther with you for at least two years and the child can get the green card immediately after the adoption is completed. Bad: the process is very complicate and you need to hire an experienced lawyer to help you. 

2. You can use the family-based petition process. Good: the process is simple and you even do not need to hire a lawyer, i.e., you can do it by yourself. Bad: you need to live together with the child for at least two years, i.e., you  "must have evidence of a full and final adoption and satisfy the 2-year legal custody and joint residence requirements before the adopted child may be considered their “child” for purposes of immigration benefits".

 

非常感謝這裏有像您一樣的熱心人
