[FONT="Tahoma"]Dh & I have been married for 3 years now and he wants to adopt my oldest 2 children from my first marriage. My ex is not in the picture at all and has not been in 4 years now. He did pay child support for a short time only because they were garnishing him a whopping $10 a week! Dh & I live in Idaho, but kids were born in CA (San Bernardino county) and ex lives who knows where.
What state do I file in? Do I do it in the county of birth or the county we currently live in?
We can't really afford an attorney unless we can find one that will let us make small payments. Is an adoption something I can handle myself or should I hire an atty?
Oh, and I have sole physical & legal custody. Ex has supervised visits 1st and 3rd Sat from 9-5 only. Which he has never once asked to see them since the divorce.
Any help is really appreciated. Thanks![/FONT]
