Do I have a legal right to sign forms for my step-daughter when they ask for parent/guardian signatures?
Her mom died when she was 1, so it's just her father and I.
Answer:
yes, i think you would be fine. my stepdad (who is not legally my guardian/parent) has always signed for me on things.as long as she is in your household and you're one of the sole providers to her.
Does she live with you? If the answer is yes than you are allowed to sign for her.
If you and her Dad are legally married, you are her parents.
If her dad says it's ok, then it's ok.
If you are classified as one of her legal guardians then yes you can
i dont think so. you need to have her fathers permission unless you have adopted her.
yea. when it says parent/GUARDIAN signatures, u have legal right to.. if your her legal guardian
Check the law in YOUR state, but if you have not adopted her or been declared a LEGAL guardian, then legally you can't sign anything for her (or get medical care for her or take her out of the country).
So long as you and he are legally married then youhave the right to sign for anything, so far as I know. The only question would be in the case of legal documents, in which case you may need to adopt her first. Medical forms may be the same.
Yes you do have the right to do that. Since her father is your husband and you and he have sole custody then you can sign the papers for her.
