What is the name of your state? North Carolina
The situation: I have raised my 6 year old stepson since the day he came home from hospital. A few months later his mom and I got married. His mom and I also have a 15yr old daughter together. We were split up for about 5 years before we got back together. We stayed married for about 4 years bfore divorcing. I haved raised my stepson as my own and he doesn't know I'm not his biological father. Biological father has never been in the picture. I pick ups my stepson every day after work and have him every weekend. Getting biological father's rights terminated will not be an issue.
Question: Will the fact that I'm no longer married to his mother be an issue? Both of us want this adoption to happen. Also, I'm curious to what to expect for adoption fees.
Thanks for any help/advice
