no , ese the faether name is not on the certificate so it does not have proof that it's the father
No he have to sign it in order to be on there.
Yes - the man signing the birth certificate is the child's legal father unless/until established otherwise in court.
It depends on the state. In some states, a father who is unmarried to the mother acquires legal rights by signing the birth certificate. In other states, signing the birth certificate conveys no legal right, and the father still must proceed with a legitimation or paternity proceeding in order to become the legal father.
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.
No, this is why the birth certificate does not hold up in court when the father seek paternal rights because it is not fool proof by showing DNA. If you are not married I strongly recommend you get it done though before he signs. Only the biological father is allowed to sign it and if you know the one signing it is not the father, you are committing fraud.
Except in an adoption, there is no such person as a "non biological father." The only man who should be signing a birth certificate is the child's biological father. Any other man who signs it is making an illegal statement.
Not yet, but working on it. see profile
If an unmarried woman gives birth in North Carolina, the newborn is given her last name if the father is not present. The father of the child must sign the birth certificate in order for the child to be given his last name.
Yes, you can. Most states prohibit naming a father without either a marriage license or a DNA test. Of course, if you are unmarried and sue the child's father for child support, the father's name will be added to the birth certificate. Also, in almost all child support cases, the child's last name is changed to the father's last name.
DNA testing can be done before or after a birth certificate is signed if there is any question about who the father of a child is or if visitation rights are being contested.
The mother can sign her name, not the father's name.
a father.
