I want to adopt my niece (Relative Adoption of my younger sister's daughter). My brother-in-law passed away a few months ago, therefore I am adopting her daughter. I am a PR in Singapore with 2 children: a boy who is 22 years old and a girl who is 16 years old. Our family is Hindu, and I am married. My sister contacted one of the attorneys there, but they informed her that it was not possible to adopt in accordance with Section 11 of the 1956 Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act. It indicates that the adoptive parents should not have a Hindu daughter, but we refuse to give up because my sister is having a hard time, and we want to be able to assist her. Please investigate the options of Relative Adoption because we want to confirm them once more. Ask your legal doubt of Relative Adoption Legal support | Get the best advice and Consultation.
