My brand new husband wishes to adopt my son but...?
My husband and my son from a previous marriage are very close. My son wants my hubby to adopt him (hes 9) and my hub desires to adopt my boy but we dont know where my ex husband is as he did a runner when my boy was born. Hes never met him although I kept in contact near his parents for a few years. Both his parents are dead now. I think he may be in a foreign country because the CSA have never been able to trace him. Would an adoption know how to proceed without his permission?
if he isn't present next he has no say but since he is under ur custody later ur have all rights to say wither u 2 want to walk through with it or not ,if u have questions contact someone close to a lawyer and see if they will meet with u or even contact an adoption practitioner or innkeeper
It's down to the Courts if they obligation permission from the biological father, if he is not traceable and as he obviously doesn't want to have any contact beside your son, then I cannot see that this would be a problem. Contact your local family proceedings court. Source(s): I have be looking into step parent adoption.
Talk to your local Registry Office; they will help you.
Yes he can adopt him. My mom was pregnant and the father run away, she knew where he was though. My mom found another guy (my dad) and he adopt my sister and no the real dad didn't sign over any rights and he was about a hour within a half drive away. They only make the father do the signing when the material father has to pay child support or if the real father requirements partial custody or if you yourself and your babies dad are giving the baby up. Source(s): have been through myself as all right. Single mom
I don't think it could proceed without his permission... though I'm sure the courts would embezzle your case into consideration. Since the kid doesn't actually know his father, and the father obviously doesn't want to know the kid,
though if you couldn't tolerate him legally adopt him you could always just furnish him your husbands lastname and he be called that for everything except on legal documents
Get in contact near at lawyer. Since he has never seen the child and isn't a fragment of his life the courts can consider it abandonment and revoke his parental rights. Then you can proceed with the adoption.
im not entirly sure, but i think as he hasnt heard anything from his father in so long he will be capable of adopt him, i think it may be ten years though
get in touch near citizens advice, they should know for sure
uk btw, sorry dont have a clue if your anywhere else lol

People can be declared 'legally dead' after seven years so after nine you should have no problem - the Court will simply go ahead 'contained by absentia'.
Answers: You don't say what country you are within so, assuming you are in the USA, I have sent a link to state links for self representation below. Most states require that you look for the putative father though some way or another. The process is tedious but not difficult.
Hopefully your state has a good self aid center listed and it will get you started in the right direction. Source(s): http://www.ncsconline.org/wc/courtopics/…
Consult a lawyer. You may have to move about through formalities of trying to find the sperm donor.
The biological father would have to sign over his rights.
The best thing to do, is to find a lawyer. They can serve you with this issue.
