The person may marry if they choose to, but a child cannot be adopted by a new spouse unless the biological parent voluntarily relinquishes their parental rights. In cases of extreme neglect and/or abuse the court has the power to permanently terminate parental rights, the child would then be eligible for adoption with the court's permission.

While the primary focus is on the noncustodial parent's income, the court may consider the spouse's income if it affects the noncustodial parent's ability to pay support. However, the spouse's income is not directly considered for calculating child support amounts; rather, it may be factored into the overall financial picture. Ultimately, the court has discretion in how much weight to give this income.

Yes, you can adopt your stepchildren even if the noncustodial parent has not paid child support or visited them for a significant period.
