Pending I485 - Can I add my ADOPTED son to tag along?

[djohan]

I have 2 adopted sons, and they both are outside the country.
I am thinking about adding them into my pending I-485, which recently i have just did my 2nd fingerprinting.
My questions are:
1. Is it possible to revise my I-485 application at this stage and add the two of them into my application?
2. Do I have to bring two of my adopted children to come to the state or can it be done remotely?
3. Is there any different if they are my biological sons instead?
4. Is it going to delay my processing time? by how much?
5. Is there any adverse effect to my application? Should i just wait 'till i get my citizenship (5+years latter) and sponsor them?
6. What kind of other requirements/applications and documentations is needed?
If anyone is familiar with this situation, please help.
As always, Thank you in advance!

------ first get them H4 visa stamp (if you are on valid H1) and bring them to US then file I-485 for them
2. Do I have to bring two of my adopted children to come to the state
------YES
or can it be done remotely?
3. Is there any different if they are my biological sons instead?
4. Is it going to delay my processing time?
---no
by how much?

5. Is there any adverse effect to my application?
-----NO if you have adpoted them and have documentary pfoof and USCIS does not suspect fraud that you took the money just to bring them to US, you need very good lawyer
Should i just wait 'till i get my citizenship (5+years latter) and sponsor them?
6. What kind of other requirements/applications and documentations is needed?

----- first bring them on H4 Visa status IN US, we will let you know, or go to your lawyer and ask him.
If anyone is familiar with this situation, please help.
