Being legal guardian to relatives in UK
Hi all
Just had family visiting and a question came up about being the legal guardian to my nephews 3 kids. They wanted to know what would happen to the kids seen as I live here in the US.
Has anyone become the legal guardian of a British citizen living in the UK.
Thanks
Brendan

I would assume that you would need to first adopt the kids. Then assuming they're minors, petition them for an immigrant visa.
Really though, if you're intending to stay living here, it makes sense for them to find someone else given how long of a process all of that could take.
