Does anyone know anything about Japanese Adoption Law?


I am 23 years old but my stepfather is Japanese. My parent's papers did not state that we (my sister and I) are legally adopted by him but then we want to stay here permanently. He recently went to the city hall to check if he can adopt us but other than paperworks ask of him I am not sure what's going on. Would you know if there's a chance that this can work and my visa can be changed?

Yes, in Japan an adult can be adopted. There are many website that talk about this - you need only to Google it to find them for yourself as I just did.
