Thank you, that's what I was looking for. I came across kinship when looking into foster, but I do not want to put foster angle onto this, no wrong doing from son. Even if it's pro forma only. Kinship sounded like a better, more gentle option.
Kinship care is the full-time care of children by relatives. Kinship care occurs informally, when children are not involved with public child welfare agencies, and formally, when public child welfare agencies are involved in placing children with relatives. Informal and formal kinship caregivers are gaining greater recognition by federal and state governments for their roles in the child welfare system.

I may try calling WA State DSHS and find out if this can be accomplished for an out of country relative.
All other venues you mentioned will be time taking and I have simple reasons, mostly age related, not to drag on at least her relocation. The younger they are, the faster they adopt and have more doors opened education wise for them that way.
