ADOPTION IN

Nicaragua
Nicaragua

In 2011, U.S. citizens adopted approximately thirty children from Nicaragua. According to Nicaraguan law, prospective adoptive parents must either be Nicaraguan citizens or have a permanent residence in Nicaragua and plan to remain in Nicaragua until the child reaches the age of majority. In the cases of U.S. citizens with an approved I-600 or I-600A, the residency requirement is typically waived.
