Re: adoption

The courts usually don't want to do step-parent adoptions until you've been married a couple of years. They want to make sure the marriage "takes".

Once you marry, you should be able to add the children on your health insurance since they live with you.

If you have any other questions, you can call me at 713-847-6000.
