Just spoke with an immigration attorney who is willing to do a half hour consultation for $75 ($2000 for the whole case which were gonna pass on). I found most attorneys are not willing to do this. Gonna try to get all my questions answered then report back here on what I find out in case it helps someone else. In the mean time if anyone has any insight into my questions please post.

This sounds about right, attorneys want to hande entire case typically. Keep us posted!

You did answer all the questions except the one about the info for his biological father. That is where we are stuck. Im thinking about typing up a cover letter explaining that we dont hwve the info abd upload it as additional evidence. Having a hard time finding an attorney that will answer my limited questions for a small fee. They all want to take the whole case for a large fee.

Is his father on the birth certificate?  How did your wife bring the child to the US in the first place? If your wife has full custody and the father is estranged, there's not much more you can do other than provide what evidence you have of the child having been in mom's full custody.  It's really a case of USCIS covering their bases and ensuring this isn't a case of parental kidnapping.  

 

I do agree, get your stepchild's passport first.  Do the N-600 second.  If the child is 14 or older, they will have to attend their own kid oath ceremony.
