Residence is defined as the place of general abode or a person's principal, actual dwelling place in fact, without regard to intent. USCIS reserves the right to request information on any household member who has not yet reached his or her 18th birthday before the date when Form I-600A or Form I-600 is filed, or who does not actually live at the same residence, but whose presence in the residence is relevant to the issue of your and your spouse's suitability to adopt.

PURPOSE: This supplement must be completed for every adult member of the household, other than the applicant/petitioner and spouse (if married).

The purpose of this supplement is to collect information on any individual who has the same residence as the applicant/petitioner and is 18 years of age or older on or before the date the applicant/petitioner files Form I-600A or Form I-600, any household member who has not yet turned 18 years of age before the applicant/petitioner files Form I-600A or Form I-600, and any individual who does not actually live at the same residence as the applicant/petitioner, but whose presence USCIS deems relevant to determine the applicant/petitioner’s suitability to adopt. USCIS will determine suitability by conducting background and security checks on adult household members to assist in assessing the suitability of the applicant/petitioner.

However, failure to provide the requested information, and any requested evidence, may delay a final decision or result in denial of the underlying adoption-related application and/or petition.

As an adult member of the prospective adoptive parent’s household, however, information about you may be relevant to the adjudication of the prospective adoptive parent’s Form I-600A or Form I-600. Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(16), the prospective adoptive parent is entitled to review any information that may be used to deny a Form I-600A or Form I-600. By signing the Form I-600A/Form I-600, Supplement 1, you consent to USCIS disclosing to the prospective adoptive parents, adoption service provider, home study preparer, if applicable, and any individual or entity identified by the prospective adoptive parent, if applicable, information that USCIS may obtain about you that is relevant to the adjudication of the prospective adoptive parent's Form I-600 or Form I-600A, even if the Privacy Act, 5 USC 552a, might otherwise prevent disclosure of the information to the prospective adoptive parents.
