Adoption by step-parents is the most common type of adoption in the United States and the procedure is virtually the same as it would be for other types of adoption. The process is relatively easy in those cases in which the biological parent consents or has abandoned his parental duties. If the biological parent refuses to consent to the step-parent adoption it is still possible for the step-parent to successfully adopt the step-child. However, a lawsuit will have to be brought against the biological parent. This lawsuit will aim to terminate his or her biological rights.Below is a general outline of the steps in the adoption process* Filing of a petition: The parties wishing to adopt must file a petition with the court asking the court to approve their desire to adopt a particular child. * Notice period: After the petition is filed, anyone with a vested interest in the child well being (e.g., a parent, guardian, legal representative, adoption agency, or in most states the child herself if over 12 years old) must receive notice of the petition. Exact notice requirements vary by state. * Adoption hearing: During the hearing, the judge determines if the adoption is in the child:s best interest. If satisfied, the judge will then issue an final decree of adoption.

Best to consult an attorney for the filing of the paperwork. You and your spouse (step-parent) will be subject to a federal background check.
