Hello

Has anyone known of a couple who successfully adopted from Jamaica and would like to share their story with me as I need help with adopting my relative. She is 18 months old and her father is not in her life and her mother can't care for her. We have already submited our I600A and done the home study. The parents have already met with CDA in Jamaica and signed over their rights to the child. I have been told however that the fact her father's name is on the birth certificate and she is not in an orphanage, that she will not be approved. She is living with her auntie as neither of us would want to put her in a children's home in Jamaica. I am Jamaican and my husband is american. If anyone has advise, that would be so much appreciated. We are taking care of her financially and just couldn't bear to know that they might tell us no. Please contact me if you know what I can do.

Thanks
