My wife and I living together since she is 3 months pregnant, the biological father is somewhere in another country in asia, we have no contact on him since my wife is 3 months pregnant and we don't know where he is, 2002 we have been told that he is on jail,
My daugther or step daugther is now 5 years old and have no Idea that I am not her biological father, on the birth certificate is her mother maiden name,
but she is using my last name, I want to adopt her, I just file a stepparent adoption in city hall, I have been told that we have to contact the biological father, or run an add in the newspaper, or file a termination of right,
What do I need to do? how can we run an add in the newspaper if he don't live here in United States? How can I file a termination of right?
We live in California
