Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland

Eligibility to Adoption

Thanks for the reply for my last post. When you mentioned I need to convience the Judge I will stay permanently. What kind of document or how should I do that? And is it true that if I express any desire to return to my home country, not immediately, but in a few years time, the Judge will reject and turn down the finalization?
