My wife will apply for citizenship this year, and I'm wondering if I should wait to adopt my stepchild until the citizenship process is complete, or go ahead and adopt her now. I'm in California. My wife and stepdaughter have their green cards and we have been married and living in the USA for over 4 years. They have had their provisional green cards for 3 years this June (expired, but have letter stating they are awaiting removal of provisions). I'm wondering if adopting her now will create confusion, and maybe better to wait for citizenship through her mother is complete. Any thoughts?
