Residency in Maine:
You must be a resident of the State of Maine for 6 months prior to filing your adoption. The adoption is filed with the Probate Court in the county where you reside.
Consent of Absent Parent:
Most of the adoptions we help families complete are not able to get the consent of the absent parent. Completing a stepparent adoption without the other parents' consent is somewhat common. Pursuant to Title 18-C, 9-204, based on the fact that termination is in the best interest of the child, and the parent has abandoned the child, as described in Title 22, section 4002, subsection 1-A, the adoption can be completed without the absent parent's consent.
Consent of child:
In Maine, if the child is 14 years or older, the child will sign a consent to adoption.
When absent parent's whereabouts or identity are unknown:
It is fairly common that the absent parent's whereabouts are unknown. It is also fairly common that the biological father's identity is unknown. In both situations, you can still complete the stepparent adoption.
Stepparent Adoption in Maine:
No matter what your situation may be, we have the experience to help you complete your adoption. A stepparent adoption in Maine takes approximately 3 months to be final. Once completed, the child will receive a new birth certificate showing the child's new name and the new parent.
Adult Adoption in Maine:
Adult adoptions in Maine are very simple. As an adult, the adoptee can decide on their own that they want to be adopted, and they don't need the consent of the biological parent. An adult adoption can be finalized as soon as 45-60 days.

THE ADOPTION PROCESS IN MAINE
The court wants the child to have the unity and security of a two-parent home, and when the absent parent is not active in the child’s life, then the court will do the adoption without the consent of the other parent. If the other parent is willing to sign a consent, that will make the adoption easier, but if the absent parent has abandoned the child, then you can do the adoption without the father’s consent.
