Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We searched the National Archives Catalog but were unable to locate any records about the 1972 visa policy for adopting immigrant children. However, it is possible that information may be located in the Records of the immigration and Naturalization Service (Record Group 85). We suggest that you contact the National Archives at Washington, DC - Textual Reference (RDT1) via email at archives1reference@nara.gov for a search of the INS administrative records
You may wish to search U,S, Citizenship & Immigration Services for the names of its agency Historian or Librarian who may be able to provide you with more information for your research topic.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
