The stepparent adoption process can be simple or complex, depending on the circumstances.

If you and your new spouse have agreed to step adoption, the next step in the process is to obtain consent from your child’s non-custodial biological parent. If he or she refuses, legal action must be taken for the purpose of terminating his or her parental rights. Sometimes, when the non-custodial parent is an unknown father, additional steps must be taken to complete the adoption process.

In certain circumstances, the adoption process must start in the juvenile court system. That includes cases for custody and for the termination of parental rights.
