First, you can't voluntarily sign away parental rights without the permission of the court AND the mother, provided that the other parent is not now or will in the future be on Welfare. They have the power to override any such decision.

If you are granted it, you will still owe the back child support, but there will not longer a current payments, so the amount you pay will not change until the arrears and compounded interest penalties are paid.
