If the father is the custodial parent he can request a child support order at the court that has jurisdiction over the case. He should consult with an attorney in his area who specializes in family law.
Unemployment compensation is countable income for purposes of child support. If the father has legal custody, the amount of time that the child spends at the mother's home probably won't matter.
Once paternity is established, the non-custodial parent has the right to request visitation, just as the custodial parent has the right to request support.

Child support is for the custodial parent.Be warned though that courts have ordered custodial fathers to pay when the mother make considerably less. This is most common in California.
Yes, if the father is the custodial parent. It works just the same as when the mother is the custodial parent. The non-custodial pay child support based on their income and other factors.
No. (The answer is the same whether the father is the obligor/non-custodial parent or obligee/custodial parent.)
A custodial parent may have to pay child support if his income is significantly higher than that of the non-custodial parent based on the non-custodial parent's "parenting time" percentage.
It varies.
If the custodial is the father, he pays support, even with sole custody.
In such a case, the non-custodial father should prepare to begin paying child support.
The situation regarding child support MUST be revisited if the circumstances of the custodial parent change.
The involved party will need to discuss the matter with the ADA in charge of the case. If child support has been under the supervision of the state and/or there are arrearages the case will not be dismissed upon the request of the custodial parent.
The state will not pay child support. The state may grant TANF and/or medical assistance to the child/custodial parent if they are indigent. If so, or at the CP's request, the state will attempt to collect the past-due support.
