Oklahoma's Consent to
Adoption Law
The consent may be signed any time following the birth. However, it must be signed in court. If the birth mother is under the age of 16, Oklahoma state law also requires the consent of one of her parents.
Pre-consents are allowed in the state of Oklahoma.
Revocation Time Frame in Oklahoma
The consent is irrevocable upon signing, unless a judge determines that it is in the best interest of the child to be removed from the adoptive family. This action also must be done within 30 days of signing.
