Laws vary in different jurisdictions. Generally, an unmarried father who signed an affidavit of paternity has established his paternity and can file a custody case. If you were never married to the other parent of your child, and never signed an affidavit of paternity then you must establish paternity legally (by a DNA test) before you can start a custody case.
You can only "amend" a paternity affidavit if you have a paternity test done to prove or disprove paternity... In many cases this is something that the state will do (ie of child support orders)
The short answer is yes. The affidavit simply establishes a presumption of paternity. The father has no actual rights (to custody, parenting time, or support) until he files a paternity suit. If he did file a paternity suit, no DNA test will be required, and he will be found to be the father, because he is on the affidavit. Next, the court would issue an Order of Filiation. At that point, the mother would be bound by Michigan's 100 mile rule, and would not be able to more more than 100 miles from the other parent unless given permission by the court. However, in your case, all you have is an affidavit of parentage. You can move out of state without permission of the other parent or the court.
Forgery of a paternity affidavit (acknowledgment of paternity) is a criminal matter. You should contact your local police department and report the forgery. You should also see a family law attorney.
If a child is born out of wedlock, a paternity affidavit is filled out and signed. The exact forms vary from state to state, but basically the forms list the parents' and child's information, and both parents swear they believe the man is the father of the child. The form is a legal document for purposes of naming, support, inheritance, and custody disputes.
Sometimes charges can be dropped against someone even after an affidavit has been signed. It will really depend on the charges and city and state.

It depends on your state. Texas just today passed a new law allowing this, so you need to check your state laws. Everyday they seem to change.
