I was wondering if anyone knew how you long you need to be married to your husband before you child's biological father can sign over his rights. I live in massachusetts and her father is more than willing to sign over his rights to my husband but we have only been married for 7 months. Any answers will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
As far as I know, there is no time limit as long as everyone is in agreement.
Good luck to you and welcome to A2K :-D
Talk to a lawyer.
The issue isn't how long you and your husband have been married. The issue is that if your child's biological father relinquishes rights that the child will not become a burden on the taxpayers.
As Montana says, if everyone agrees, there should be no problem.
Welcome to A2K.
I would check with a lawyer, but I think that there is more to this than your ex signing over his rights. Your present husband would have to legally adopt the child.
