    Default Immigration and Adoption

    Hope someone here has some advice.

    2 years ago my then fiance adopted her daughter. About 4 months after the adoption became legal my wifes visa wa approved. When we went to the Embassy they infomed us the adoption needed to be 2 years old for her daughter to get the benifit of the K1 Fiance visa my wife was getting. We have since waited the 2 years and have now applied for the I130. The wait for that is an other 2 years. Is there a faster way? If I adopt her will it speed up the process, if so how is that done. My wife and daughter are from Thailand.

    It may speed up the process, but I would guess at a cost of $20-$30,000.00. International adoptions are expensive, and the agencies in the business really soak you for money.
