ESTA for foster child

Hi all. I wonder if anybody has had this to deal with and can help. This week I will be completing our ESTA applications. We have a five year old foster daughter and I believe the form asks for parents full names. What should we do here? I am guessing we don�t put our names in there

I�m not 100% but would assume it would be birth parents as they still technically have parental control, difficulty may be filling in all information. You�d then need a letter from social services to confirm your foster parents and have permission to take her 🙂

Hi we are foster carers and have taken our foster children to Florida. We put child�s parents names in.
Don�t forget to take a permission letter from placing authority as it will be asked for .
Have a fantastic time

I wouldn't fill out an esta until spoken to social worker/local authority first
