Thanks.
I have read it and see definition of parents as
(a) the stepfather of a child whose father is dead, and reference to stepfather
includes a relationship arising through civil partnership; and
(b) the stepmother of a child whose mother is dead, and reference to
stepmother includes a relationship arising through civil partnership; and
(c) the father, as well as the mother, of an illegitimate child where the person
is proved to be the father; and
(d) an adoptive parent, where a child was adopted in accordance with a
decision taken by the competent administrative authority or court in a country
whose adoption orders are recognised by the UK or where a child is the
subject of a de facto adoption in accordance with the requirements of
paragraph 309A (except that an adopted child or a child who is the subject of
a de facto adoption may not make an application for leave to enter or remain
in order to accompany, join or remain with an adoptive parent under
paragraphs 297 to 303); and
(e) in the case of a child born in the UK who is not a British citizen, a person
to whom there has been a genuine transfer of parental responsibility on the
ground of the original parents' inability to care for the child.
If the child or children come from a previous relationship that the dependent partner
has had, and the other natural parent is still alive you should be aware that the lead
applicant may have become a de facto adoptive parent.
According to this guidance now
Thee lead applicant is the step father
Where does defacto adoptive parent come in?
