Adoption

Hello redditors. Baka may makapag bigay ng insight sa akin. My anak ako sa pagkadalaga. May paternal admission pero she is using my surname sa pagkadalaga. I am now married for 10 years and hopeful na magamit nya ang surname ni husband. Adoption ba ang choice namin? Saan kaya ako pwede magstart? Zero support ang biological father nya since nanganak ako and I know where he lives sakaling kelangan namin sya makausap.

Thank you in advance sa mga magiging input nyo. 🙏🏻

yes, adoption, magsimula ka sa DSWD, punta ka doon, para ma-guide ka nila.

I'm a lawyer, and this is the best, least expensive way to do it atm. You and your husband may jointly file the petition for adoption. No need for a lawyer, basta kaya ninyong ma provide lahat ng requirements, including preparing the application. Naintindihan kong mahirap ang buhay ngayon at lahat nagtitipid. Kaya sinasabi ko nang no need for a lawyer basta dadaan sa NACC (via dswd regional office nearest you).

Ask for guidance sa National Authority for Child Care (NACC), it is an attached agency to the DSWD at sila ang may mandate sa lahat ng types of adoption. Their office is at Timog Avenue, Quezon City.
