More details to this question:
My parents have guardianship of my 20 year old niece. Their health insurance for her will ends in December. I would like to become her guardian so I may add her to my health insurance policy. All parties are in agreement and my work just needs to see the legal form stating I am her guardian. Is this a difficult process?

Unless she is disabled, she is an adult. As an adult you can not get guardianship of her. If she is disabled then a guardianship can be commenced. However that is a much more complicated matter. The only other way is an adult adoption.
