You can only "amend" a paternity affidavit if you have a paternity test done to prove or disprove paternity... In many cases this is something that the state will do (ie of child support orders)

If father signed affidavit of paternity does mother still have legal custody of minor child if never married?
Laws vary in different jurisdictions. Generally, an unmarried father who signed an affidavit of paternity has established his paternity and can file a custody case. If you were never married to the other parent of your child, and never signed an affidavit of paternity then you must establish paternity legally (by a DNA test) before you can start a custody case.
In Michigan if a child was born out of wedlock but the biological father signed an affidavit of parentage can the mother move out of state without first going through the courts?
The short answer is yes. The affidavit simply establishes a presumption of paternity. The father has no actual rights (to custody, parenting time, or support) until he files a paternity suit. If he did file a paternity suit, no DNA test will be required, and he will be found to be the father, because he is on the affidavit. Next, the court would issue an Order of Filiation. At that point, the mother would be bound by Michigan's 100 mile rule, and would not be able to more more than 100 miles from the other parent unless given permission by the court. However, in your case, all you have is an affidavit of parentage. You can move out of state without permission of the other parent or the court.

How does custody work in Iowa when the parents were never married?
Marriage is a significant factor regarding parental rights. A married man is presumed to be the biological father of any child born by his wife. Unmarried fathers don't automatically acquire parental rights unless they take certain steps to establish their paternity legally. The mother has sole custody until the father's paternity is established.In Iowa, paternity can be established by filing an Affidavit of Paternity with the State Registrar. Affidavits are available at the hospital where the child is born and will establish paternity once the affidavit is registered. The affidavit requires the consent of the mother. If the mother does not consent then paternity must be established in court by a DNA test. Once paternity is established the father can request joint custody and visitations.See related link.
