Ok, question. My husband (the non-USC) has a sister who is 16 years old. She lives with her mother, who is sick and can't even make enough money to feed herself much less her daughter and son. My husband and I have been sending money for her to go to school and for the family to eat.

We would like to bring his sister here to teach her and make sure she is ok.

My question is this: If their parents were to give up parental rights to my husband, so that she would be considered his daughter, would she be able to come here as such? She seems to fall through all the cracks, and I know this is a long shot, but I just thought I would ask. We are basically taking care of her already, she would just be a little closer if she were here.

Thank you for reading

To sponsor he would need to be a Citizen.

Too old to adopt, well for immigration purposes.

What is the "not too old age" to adopt for immigration purposes? Thanks.

Under 16.

I do not know if other issues would then come into play, would seem a bit of a big loophole if you could adopt your siblings to avoid the wait.

I think that you also need to consider the adoption process/rules in your husband's country...
