Not necessarily, but paternity must be established before an order for support is entered. This is done by: genetic testing; presumption, where the parties were married when the child was born/conceived; acknowledgment of paternity either in writing or in open court; default, where the alleged father fails to cooperate in the process.

Child support is based on the income that the court finds that a person earns, not what their tax docs show. If one party believes that the other party is failing to claim some income, they would have to show proof of the hidden income, and ask the court to declare that the person's actual income reflects the higher number.
