Best Answer

The parent would need to file a petition for the voluntary termination of parental rights (TPR) in the state court that has jurisdiction. After filing the petition a hearing date would be set and the judge would listen to the reasons for the request and allow any interested party to contest the action. TPR's are generally granted so that the child/children can become eligible for adoption, not for a parent to escape their financial obligations to their minor children.

You can get papers to sign over the rights of children at the Children Welfare Department. The papers can also be obtained from non governmental organizations that deal with the children's rights like the UNCRC and UNESCO.

If you sign over all your parental rights in California to a family member do you still have to pay child support?

I'm not a lawyer or anything near it, but to the best of my knowledge the parent who is retaining their rights can request that the parent relinquishing theirs still be held financially obligated. I've also heard that in the case that the request is not made, the parent relinquishing their rights is still responsible for any arrears owed.


If a father or mother sign over rights can they still claim their child on taxes?
