Do i need adopt my new partner's child
Do I need officially adopt my new partner's child for them to be considered my dependant?
I had sponsored my biological child and now ex partner in June 2016...She has been corrupted by benefits and welfare schemes and literally kidnapped my child luckily i found another partner, but she has a child of her own my query is does my new partners child automatically qualify as my dependant stepchild or do i need to officially adopt? i also want to claim a waiver of the 5 year waiting period for a second sponsorship based on compelling circumstances? kindly advise on these 2 queries |

If not, how are you going to show that they qualify for a partner visa? You will need some extremely compelling circustances to get a waiver, they won't give you one just because your previous partner left you. I would strongly advise you speak to a registered agent. |

Thanks for your quick reply Pollyanna
well, i was hoping i could file it myself for the 300 prospective mv, with a stepchild present in the relationship given that the prior application for defacto spouse. Visa 100 for the expartner and biological children, complicated though it was, went successfully for the major part due to the case studies and informed moderators present on this forum |

I can't advise you, ony tell you what I would do in your place. You have two main hurdles to overcome - obtaining a waiver due to the previous sponsorship, and proving that the mother has the legal right to remove the child from their home country - is thefather still on the scene, does he have any access etc, that will all come into play. |

This situation is clearly more complex than your previous one. |
