    Generally speaking it is a full year. But this means no contact, no birthday cards, no support payments, no anything. However, you can't just file abandonment. Abandonment can be used as grounds for something else like a TPR but those are hard to get. Perhaps if you tell us what you are trying to accomplish with abandonment we can tell you a way to get it.
