I know this will sound kind of weird but this will be the second time I have put up this thread. I just need to know if my fiance and I have to be married in order for him to adopt my son. The bio dad has not seen him going on 3 years and we are anxious to get on with our lives. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :confused: but :)
Yes, you have to be married....and for a state specific amount of time. This can vary from 6 months to one year. It is only after that amount of time passes that you can file the adoption papers.

I spoke to an atty yesterday and he said that he was pretty sure that it was 2 years.. he is looking into it and said that he will get back to me.
Good luck!:)
