The biological father have to give up his parental rights or this will not be possible. If he is an illegal immigrant he can still have paternal rights in the US. Once his rights are terminated you can apply for adoption.
now a stepfather can't adopt a child without the concent of the child's father
no
Your spouse may adopt the child but the court will have to serve notice of that proceeding to the biological father.
Tell me the process of adopting a child not yours in a marriage. The biological father is deceased.
It all depends on what is his status.For example-if the NBF was married to the mother before a child was born he is presumed to be the father and there is no need to adopt the child. In the other hand if there is a bio-father it is required to ask him to relinquish his rights.
Then unless the biological father is ok with this and signs his rights over, the new husband has no legal rights to the child.
Yes, but he would get his GC through his wife not the adopted US citizen child.
Both biological parents have to sign their rights away or there will be no adoption.
The step father would have to adopt the child. For this to happen, the biological father would have to relinquish all rights through the court system.
