Even if that were to happen, I believe it would be illegal as China restricts such adoptions of relatives. No, it would not be easier and yes, it would cost a lot. Now, you can adopt from China and if your wife is of Chinese descent you could get an expedited adoption. That means that the process would take a little less time than the average 3 years or so it is taking now. To adopt from China, you would both have to be atleast 30 years of age, in good health, make atleast $30,000 a year if you have no children in the home or an additional $10,000 a year for each child that is in the home but you can not have any more than four and still adopt. You have to have a clear criminal background, stable income...it goes on and on. You have to meet the requirements of both the United States, China AND immigration to adopt internationally. Hope this helps!

Anyone looking to adopt, or has been adopted should check this book out. The uniqueness lies in the merging of the two themes—how the adoptive father’s over-protectiveness towards his son leads to a relationship with the birth mother after the son locates her.
