a valid adoption severs your relationship legally with your biological parents. You cannot petition for them even if you did not receive any immigration benefits based on the adoption.

Would it better to apply for my mother, then she applies for my sister? If yes, how long will this take?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Immigration lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
As a citizen, you can apply for your mother and sister simultaneously. The time period depends on a number of specifics. You should check the national visa bulletin to determine the time that it will take.

Is it necessary to change my stepson's name into his mother's name first before petitioning him as a stepchild?

Answered by attorney Kevin L. Dixler
Immigration lawyer at Law Office of Kevin L. Dixler
This may create complications, since the USCIS may think that he is already a U.S. Citizen through derivative status, which is a misrepresentation, if suggested by USCIS. As a result, actions may have to be taken to correct the birth certificate where it wrongly indicates that you are the father. If the natural father shares the same last name as you, then this is easily explained. Your step son needed to be under 18 years old at the time of your marriage to his mother. Otherwise, you cannot petition him. If he reaches 21 years old, before final processing, among other concerns, then these additional unknown facts can create complications in the future. As a result I strongly recommend an appointment or teleconference with a competent and experienced immigration attorney. The above is general information, not legal advice, and does not create an attorney client relationship.
