Petition For Minor Child Adoption {JC-1645}

JC-1645 - PETITION FOR MINOR CHILD ADOPTION. This form is used in the State of Wisconsin Circuit Court to formally request the adoption of a minor child. It allows the petitioner—who may be a relative by blood, a stepparent, or a proposed adoptive parent with whom the child has been placed—to provide the court with information and supporting documentation for the adoption proceeding. The form requires the petitioner to disclose details about the termination of parental rights of the child's birth parents, whether completed or pending, and any applicable guardianship consents. It also asks for confirmation that the child has resided in the petitioner’s home, a statement that the adoption is in the best interest of the child, and any request to legally change the child’s name. Additionally, the form addresses whether the child is subject to the federal Indian Child Welfare Act and whether interpreter services are needed. §48.90, Wisconsin Statutes. www.FormsWorkflow.com
