Based on the NBCs implementation of the USCIS Hague Adoption Convention program in 2008; the parents who intend orphan adoption are benefited by experiencing the specialized skills of the NBC Non-Hague Adoption Unit.

Requests to extend and change circumstances for the approval of Form I-600A will be accepted at the Local USCIS field offices in the USA, in relevance to the current filing instructions.

Overseas U.S. citizens involved in orphan adoption can continue to file Form I-600A at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate abroad, which has the legal rights to accept the petition. However the petitioner involved in orphan adoption abroad, should be physically present in the adoptive childs country and have an approved Form I-600A. Citizens of the United States living abroad can continue to file the Form I-600A with an overseas USCIS office or the Dallas Lockbox facility.
