I don't have a legal birth father, at all. And no one knows any info on him and no, there is no way I can find that out for legal reasons. Will it be okay if I leave it blank or should I put my step father...what should I do?

I'm the beneficiary by the way. Thanks!

What does your birth certificate say? Father unknown? If yes, then put 'unknown'.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

When two people are meant for each other, no time is too long, no distance is too far, no one can ever tear them apart.

I don't have a father listed even on my birth certificate. It's just my mom. So I can't put someone who doesn't exist I guess.

Btw, thanks for all your help! I really do appericate it! :D

You're welcome :)

Your step-father never adopted you, right? Your BC would be amended then and list him as your natural father, I think?

Just put unknown, which is true.

You have a father, you just know nothing about him, so write unknown. You cannot leave it blank, write N/A or none in this question. The only correct answer is "unknown"

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.  - Dr. Seuss

My wife wrote "unknown - see attachment" and attached a brief explanation stating she had never met her biological father, had never been in contact with him and knew nothing about him. Her step father was listed as father in our marriage certificate, and she included a brief explanation of that as well.

This was never an issue, and was never brought up at the interview.
