Paternity must be established before support is ordered. Doing so requires actual notice to the putative father, not publication or ordinary mail. The father's name may be entered on a birth certificate only if he signs an acknowledgment of paternity. Retroactive support is generally limited to 24 months prior to the effective date of current support. Default judgments and imputed income occur only when the PF has failed to respond to such notice. The 65% rule kicks in only if one has several children.
