Wisconsin Instructions for Voluntary TPR is a process for voluntarily surrendering parental rights in the state of Wisconsin. The process is commonly used when a parent is unable to adequately provide for the child's needs or in cases of abandonment. It is important to note that this process is used only when the parent voluntarily wishes to give up their parental rights. Wisconsin Instructions for Voluntary TPR can be broken down into three main types: 1. Consent to Termination of Parental Rights (TPR): This is the most common type of voluntary TPR. With this type of TPR, the parent voluntarily agrees to surrender their parental rights. This can be done through a written agreement with the court, or through a hearing with the court. 2. Waiver of Notice and Right to Consent to TPR: This type of TPR is similar to the Consent to Termination of Parental Rights. However, the parent waives their right to be notified of any court proceedings concerning the termination of their parental rights. This waiver must be done in writing and must be approved by the court. 3. Abandonment of Parental Rights: In this type of voluntary TPR, the parent has not been in contact with the child for at least six months and has not provided for the child’s needs for at least six months. This type of TPR does not require the parent’s consent, as it is assumed that the parent is abandoning the child. By understanding the different types of Wisconsin Instructions for Voluntary TPR, parents can make an informed decision about their parental rights.
