icon Queries regarding US born citizen step child adoption

My stepdaughter is a US citizen by birth, I want to adopt her in India as I am married to her biological mother. What is the process?


A. Dear Client
If you want to adopt a stepchild, you must have the consent (or agreement) of both your spouse and the child's other parent (the noncustodial parent) unless that parent has abandoned the child. By giving his or her consent, the non-custodial parent gives up all rights and responsibilities, including child support.
Thanks
Regards
