In the context of adoption, understanding the legal age requirements is crucial. Children under the age of 12 can typically be adopted without a fathers consent.
Both parents (your spouse and the other biological or legal parent) must consent to the adoption, unless a court determines that their consent is not legally required.
When adopting a stepchild with an unknown father on the birth certificate, legal steps include filing a petition for adoption in family court. The court requires notice to all known parties and may order efforts to identify or locate the biological father.
The short answer is yes. Your husband would need to file a step parent adoption petition and comply with the adoption Statute in your State. It should not be difficult but you should hire an attorney to assist you. Best of luck with you.
If you decide not to work with an adoption agency, your first call should be to a reputable private adoption attorney in your state. He or she will go over your rights, discuss the prospective birth father situation, and review the next steps required to proceed.

When the biological father is not on the birth certificate and uninvolved, adoption by a stepparent may still require his consent or legal termination of his parental rights. Courts typically assess the fathers involvement and best interests of the child.
