Go to Conani.gov.do, that is the Dominican Republic national center for adoptions.

To start that process you need go to CONANI and get information about the process

Your fiance can go to usa and you make the petition of the girl,

one thing i can tell you adoption is a litle long process here.

When you be here you can look for informations.

Yes you can.. I am doing it right now. I am currently waiting for my husband and step-daughter's petitions to be completed by NVC. Once you are married, you can file the I-130 on her behalf. Make sure you have all of her papers, and that your future husband the proper court custody papers of his daughter.
