Stepchild Affadvit of Authorization

[ThePeck 0]

I'm submitting my wife's I130 and her children's, my stepchildren. Now originally their birth certificates had my wife's father's name listed as the father.

 

These have been previously amended to show me, which I said they had to change, due to precieved fraud. So I had her change them to not list a father on them. The children are from 2 different father's, 1 is Khmer and the other was an Australian.

 

So at the later time of the interview. Would we still need the letter of authorization? The Khmer father may actually be deceased, that's the last we know of him, hearing rumors. He was an alcoholic and dabbled in drugs so it wouldn't be surprising. Now the Australian father is no longer in the picture and has been 8 years since there's been any contact. My wife actually told him to not talk to her anymore, I was in the child's life since she was about a year old, little bit earlier. 

 

So I'm trying to prepare what might be asked and how to handle it. Thanks!
