Biological father signed over rights today to my fiancé using form AD 2A/2B, he had never even met my son. My fiancé and I are not married but want to file for adoption asap. The only problem is that my specific county says nothing about “second-parent” adoptions in the “type of adoptions” instructions. I was thinking about just doing the step parent adoptions and writing a declaration? But I’m also a little hesitant and wanted to get some advice first, I will ask a legal help place but came here bc it’s Sunday). He has been in my son’s life since 3 months old, this is the only father he knows. We have been together almost 6 years.
