If you 'step-son' was born abroad and isn't adopted it'd be section 3(1). I assume the biological father has no contact with the child and the Mother has sole responsibility. I also assume the child has ILR and if over 13 has been in the UK for 2 or more years.

HI
Thanks for the reply, yes he was born in Thailand and there has been no contact with the father for about 12 years, he is 14 and has been here for 6 years now and they both have ILR,
do I need to fill out the guardian section too or is it ok for just my wife as the mother

thanks
