My husband is in the military and we are currently stationed in germany but will be getting stationed to NY within the next 6 month. My husband is from PA and Im German.
We are trying to have my husband adopt my five year old daughter, her biological father has not paid child support for the past 2.5 years. I tried to get a court order but the state he lives in (Maine) has been giving me trouble since I am German and currently still live over here.
I been reading about adoption for a while now and figured him not supporting his child, gives me a plus point so I stopped trying, he has also not seen my daughter in 4 years. I asked him if he would give up his rights but he wont. My husband and I have been married for 3 years and have another child.
I'd like to know how high the chances are for my husband to adopt my daughter, just about how much we'll have to pay and how long the process would take.
I have also contacted a lawyer before but he wasnt even sure how he can help me. If I wanna get this done i will have to go thru PA right?
