he will have to pay back child support if owed unless mother agrees not to or he will have to pay back support if owed to state like if mother was on state aid,but no he will not have to pay for future support
No. He can sign over his rights but he would still be liable to pay child support. The only time he doesn't have to pay child support is if a stepdad wanted to adopt the child, then the biological father doesn't have to pay child support if he signs his rights away.
no, but he can't see links below Termination of parental rights does not terminate child support.
Yes. The court's job is to decide what is in the child's best interest. Even if the father does not want to see the child, why would it be in the child's best interest to give up child support for the child? There are, of course, exceptions, such as when the father is so bad for the child that giving up child support is better than having him around.
yah i think so how old is the child?
No as he can't do that. Not even the courts have the authority to exempt the man from paying child support when Welfare is involved. The mother has no say or authority over the child support. She forfeited that right when signing up. She would have to first give up her claim to Welfare benefits before any action could be taken on child support.
Generally, no.
The court will decide. Giving up your rights does not fulfill your obligations to support the child. Someone has to support the child, and you are the mother.

Terminating parental rights does not mean you are no longer obligated to support the child so you still have to pay child support. Unless the child is adopted. You will have no rights to the child at all if you have your rights terminated and the court will not give them back so be sure what you are doing.
No but past due child support may still be owed
by "signing over rights" I persume you mean, terminating her parental rights and no, she is not obligated to pay child support, however, any accumulated back child support, or "arrears" is required to be paid, unless agreed otherwise. For this you would have had a prior order to pay support prior to the terminating of the mother's rights. When your rights to a child is terminated it is as if the child was never yours and your rights to the child, and obligation for the child are forever terminated.
Yes, until/unless the child is adopted. see links below
Just because a father signs over his rights, does not mean he won't be obligated to pay child support. This will depend on what kind of agreement everyone comes to in regards to your case in California.
None of them can sign over anything. They can go to court and ask to have their rights removed and the custodial parent can ask to have the child support stopped but this means she can not get benefits before he has paid.
