"Serial immigration" can be fun at times.

I've also found out however, that my brother was adopted by an American couple - Does this declassify me as a sibling in the eyes of US Immigration, or is the fact my father's name appears on his birth certificate, and that he is "Legitimated", mean I still qualify as a blood relative?
