When a person petitions to be the guardian of a child in Oklahoma, he or she needs to fill out specific forms. These forms can be filed out online or they can be filled out via traditional paperwork. There is certain information that one needs when filling out these forms.

First of all, the court must know in which county the petition is being filed. Also, if there is to be a co-guardian in one’s situation, that person’s name must be provided.

In addition, certain information about the child is necessary. The court will need the legal name of the child, including first name, middle name and surname. In addition, the petition for guardianship must contain the child’s Social Security number. Furthermore, the court will need to know the child’s date of birth.

In addition, if the child belongs to a Native American tribe, this will need to be documented in the petition for guardianship.

Finally, the petition must contain information regarding the child’s biological parents. This includes each parent’s entire name and where each parent resides.
