Recognition of Adoption

Florida recognizes a foreign adoption. All you have to do is
a recognition of a foreign adoption and a new birth certificate will be issued from your state. I did one in our state of Louisiana and it was very easy. It took about 2 months for a recognition and a new birth certificate to be issued. If you would like, I can send you a copy of what I
did and you can look at what its like to do. You can do it on your own and save in not having to pay an attorney. You will need to make a copy of all your paper work from
Guatemala that you receive on your pick up trip to file for
a recognition. PM me with your email address and I can
email you the paperwork to look at.
