You might have to get a DNA test done, even though you know who the father is. Take him to court to have him pay for child support. Good luck and God Bless:)
If the father is unknown, you can't file for support.
The father can file for this change.
Not really. It depends on the situation.
No. However, if the alleged father has signed the birth certificate, he is acknowledging that the child is his. There are steps to take in order to be taken off of the birth certificate and relieved of the obligation of child support, including a paternity test and an amendment to the birth certificate.
The father have a legal right to put his name there if he chooses to, even with a criminal record. You can not sign it for him.
Yes and he still have to pay whether he signs the birth certificate or not.
Yes, but paternity must be established first.
Unlikely. Your husband is the legal father of the child.
No. By signing the certificate he says he is the father of the child. If he then wants visitation rights or custody he have to petition in court after he has established paternity by a DNA test. He can then also pay child support.
Yes, if/when paternity is established.
Yes, but then you would lose your rights as the child's legal father.
If a father's name is on the birth certificate that does not make him a legal guardian, it makes him a father. The two are technically different. In this state a father can have guardianship without establishing it. A father can be forced to pay child support while a guardian can not.
