Meena. subject. adoption by fr.lady
Madam,
Adoption by words is not sufficient. It should be evidenced by document registered legally. There are 2 types of adoption: simple and pleniere (full). By adoption simple you will conserve your own nationality and get the status as daughter of the french lady.In adoption pleniere you can get the french nationality,if at the time adoption you were aged below 15 years and when the requirements of french law for adoption pleniere were fulfilloed.
My contact office address is No. 85, Eawaran Darmaraja koil street, Puducherry, (opposite to Dr, Nallam clinic). My cell No. 9843648646. Yours sincerely,

I WISH HEREBY A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2015 TO ALL.

Madam,
To claim for french nationality, you must have a right. If your father and mother were french citizens, they should have conserved the french nationality at the time of your birty, Other wise you cannot. Yours sincerely
