What else can I help you with?
Can the current wife sue her husband's ex-wife for child support?
No. If your present husband is the father of the children of his previous marriage and is the custodial parent he would have to sue his ex-wife (the children's mother) for support.
What documents are needed to ask for support if father is unknown on birth certificate?
If the father is unknown, you can't file for support.
Is a spouse responsible for the others child support from a previous marriage if he dies?
No. But, the child/children of the deceased may have a claim to assets of their father's estate.
Does the father's name have to be on the birth certificate for the mother to collect child support?
The father can file for this change.
Im in the process of getting a marriage certificate and the person named as your father on your birth certificate is not your biological father can he still be named on the marriage certificate?
This arises often in the case of adoptive children, foster children, or re-marriages. If you wish to honor your step-father as your "Dad" yes it is okay to do so.
Can you leave a blank spot on a birth certificate?
Yes you can leave the spot blank for instance a father. I am a teacher and have many children in my class who have no father listed on their birth certificate.
Can the mother of a new child modify the fathers child support from a previous marriege?
No, the father must support his previous child. You knew this when you had a new child with him.
Does a father have to pay child support when the mother refuses to list him as father on the birth certificate?
Not really. It depends on the situation.
If you sign birth certificate do you have to pay child support if later you are found to not be the father?
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.
Does a man who signs a birth certificate have to pay child support?
Yes, a man who signs a birth certificate is legally considered the father of the child and can be required to pay child support.
What happens if the father signs the birth certificate?
If the father signs the birth certificate, he legally acknowledges paternity of the child. This means he may have rights and responsibilities, such as custody, visitation, and child support.
When a child is incarcerated does the maternal grandmother have more rights to the children than the paternal grandfather if the father is not on the birth certificate?
You don't say which of the parents that are incarcerated but their rights to the child comes first. If the father is not in the birth certificate and he has not established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, there is nothing that legally says he is the father. Then the maternal grandmother would have a better chance. If the father is not in the birth certificate but he has established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, the chance should be equal.
