What if you never signed the birth cirtificate and never had a DNA test can you still have child support?

Yes. The court requires a DNA test be done before granting child support. If you are not willing to give one the mother can ask for a court ordered one. That will prove paternity and also give you parental rights as petitioning for visitation or custody as well as paying child support.
