How do you go about Step parent adoption in pa?
If you can have the biological father voluntarily sign a consent to the adoption and termination of his rights, this is helpful. Otherwise, you would need to file a petition with the Orphans Court in your county for an involuntary termination of the biological father's rights based on the PA code (reasons can be no contact, no support, etc.). 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.

Can you terminate fathers parental rights when he has never seen the child?
I just got married a year ago, and just had a court date this past week to terminate biological father's rights and my husband to adopt my daughter. At least in the state of MI, they look at the finances seriously. My ex owes $8,000 in back support, but the judge would not make a ruling because he paid an average, over 50% of his support in the past two years. Not to mention, the biological father has never seen her, asked to see her, sent her a card, birthday present.......nothing! We had to pay $2000 in lawyer fees. So make sure, if you are going to hire a lawyer and spend the court fees, that the biological father has not payed over 50% of his child support obligations in the past two years. Check with your state to see what the requirements are. You can get free consultations from many lawyers, but do your homework. Find a lawyer that has experience with these kinds of cases, and get an estimate prior to signing anything. He/she may charge you for every second he works for you, than times it by 4!

No a stepparent can only adopt if the birth father or mother relinquishes their parental right of the child.

NO! It can't. Adoption is permanent. The children have lost their birth certificates and had them sealed by the state now due to the finalization of the adoption. You took on parental responsibilities that are legal in the eyes of the law.
no, changing the birth certificate requires adoption, and can only be done if the birth father's parental rights have been terminated.
