even though you were not aware of the paternity of the child as the biological father you are required to provide child support from the time the child is born, and provide insurance and or compensation for part of the medical expenses and preparation expenses that the mother was charged because of the child, she has to provide proof of these expenses of course.

Individuals have statutory limits of less time. Florida is two years. Most states are 5 years. A few are 18 years. Judge David Grey Ross, Commissioner of the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement expressed opposition to this policy during his time of service. Many judges are now denying these requests.
