Hi, same thing here , I got DQ’ed even after answering yes. I still had 6 months left to finish my residency requirement. I only got scheduled after it was over, so yes, you can’t be issued a visa without completing your time .

I feel like by this screenshot I understand that one adoptive parent ( in case of a couple adopting a child) could satisfy the two years , it need not be both or necessarily he who is submitting the i130. please correct my understanding if it’s wrong. Thanks

From Gabon. Thanks for your response . Yes I have doing lots of reading , I believe I read but struggle to interprete some.

Yes we have held custody for over two years. I live with her and , my husband lives in the US. We did a joint custody of her. Yes

Thank you for your response. It’s possible to adopt her in my country. I have resided with her for 3 years and my husband comes here from time to time. Shouldn’t we both be doing the adoption ? Can I alone not have met the physical custody requirement or must it be the couple, ? And yes , I was hoping on seeing every possible means she could be there while am there too. I will definitely look into delaying my interview. My only concern was if it was even possible to immigrate to the US given she is my sister. so are you suggesting I delay my interview , while my husband files for her so we move together ? Thank you

Greetings good people, I am so glad to have this forum , I enjoy reading it and also love how everyone goes out of their way to find a solution to every worry. I have an issue and I really love to get some help. Three years ago I lost my mom , I am the oldest child and my youngest sister is 8. Is it possible for my husband(US Citizen) and I (awaiting CR1 interview ) to adopt her ? . I have only beeen able to have guardianship for her as of now but I don’t know if adopting a sibling is valid for US immigration. She is only 8 and I don’t have any where to leave her when am gone to the US, her dad is alive can’t care for her and willing to give her up. I am so worried please help . I have been living with her since our mom fell sick till her hour of death . Thank you
