so heres the cliff noted version. i'm getting married to a woman that has a 3 year child, the mother has full custody of the child meaning the biological father has no visition no nothing so dont think he can claim the son as a dependant. when we get married i know she's covered but will the child be covered also as he's not mine biologically? thanks.

Yes, the child will become your dependent the same as your wife, especially since it is hers biologically. That also means if you divorce you will pay child support for this kid.
3 :
Yes the child will get full benefits as a dependent whether it is your birth or step child as long as it is living with you more than 50% of the year. As you state the mother has sole custody it will not be an issue at all. The child will get medical, dental, access to Child Care, and so forth.
