Adopting a child while on H1B visa

Adoption from India is not possible on H1B unless the parent and child stay together for a minimum of 2 years. As per CARA, the current regulations do not allow direct adoption. Domestic adoption (in US) is possible based on state laws. Below link has both scenarios.
