1) her ex husband should give affidavit that after divorce his wife will have full custody of the child

2) both parents can give child in adoption to you. for that deed of adoption would be necessary .

3) since biological father has no objection he can execute deed of adoption in your favour .

4) on that basis minor child passport can reflect your name in the passport .

5) as per recent supreme court judgement any person can adopt a child irrespective of his religion

1. The biological parents of the child should give consent for getting the said Visa,

2. Without executing and registering an adoption deed, you can not be his guardian or father.

1. You cannot step into the shoes of the father or guardian of your child if you have not adopted the minor or been appointed as a guardian of her by the court. Till that time your name cannot be incorporated as the father or guardian of your wife’s daughter in the passport.

2. If the biological father is willing to give the child in adoption to you then a deed of adoption may be executed between him and you. After that your name can be incorporated as the father of your step-daughter in the latter’s passport without any legal hassles. No other document is required.

3. To adopt some one you do not need to go to court. An adoption deed prepared by your lawyer will suffice.

you can file declaratory suit (sec 34 of The Specific Relief Act, 1963) for legal guardianship of that child in civil court and make her ex husband a necessary party. in this suit her ex husband can plead that he has relinquished his whole right in respect of guardianship of that child. after obtaining that decree you can make a family register. it is very easy procedure and you can get relief within 1 month. thereafter you can make any document because you are the step father of that child and her father is precluded to claim any right.
