    How to become a legal guardian of my niece in Fairfax, VA
    Hi,
    My wife and I live in Fairfax, VA more than 10 years. My wife's niece, who is 15 years old, has just arrived to the States two weeks ago as an international student of a private shool and her school will start in 2 weeks, after Labor Day. We are thinking about applying for legal guardian of her niece. How do we apply for it? What are the requirements to become a legal guardian of her niece in Fairfax, VA?
    Please advise.
    Thank you.

    Will her parents consent? Is she on a visa?
