If the child is 18, there may still be back support owed - if you are the father. You need to contact a local attorney so you can get specific information about your exact situation.

First, if you are married, your wife needs to immediately separate her assets from yours. If you wait until a paternity test is done, and the child is yours, the assets could be frozen, and than it would be too late to protect them from seizure.

Depending on your state, the retroactive amount will range from 2-18 years worth, based solely on your current level of income. It would not matter is 18 years ago you were 12 years old and earned nothing, it would be like you earned your current amount all along.

Of note, Judge David Grey Ross, Commissioner of the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement opposed this program and many judges agree, but don't expect it.

You may also want to contact a civil suit attorney to bring an action against her for paternity fraud, in not informing you earlier.

What if he deny your son but sign the birth certificate as a father and your son use his surname but he never give a financial support what would you do to have his support?

Take him to court! if he is the father whether he uses his parental rights or not, he has to pay child support. I suggest that you contact your State's child support agency. When you get an interview with them, bring all the papers relating to your child support: birth certificates, acknowledgments of paternity, court orders, payment records, etc. Be polite but persistent. Good luck!


Does a Canadian same-sex marriage permit you to change your surname?

Yes, but with these restrictions: If you are Canadian, then you can change your legal surname using only your certificate of marriage. If you are American, then upon your return to the United States, you can use your Canadian certificate of marriage to change your surname on your social security card and your U.S. passport. Only if your state recognizes same-sex marriages can you use a same-sex marriage certificate to change your surname on your state issued driver's license or non-driver's ID card. Your state does not have to PERMIT same-sex marriage, it just has to RECOGNIZE same-sex marriage in order for you to change your name this way.


It is possible to register the birth certificate of a newborn baby if the FATHER doesnt want to sign on it and doesnt want to use hes SURNAME?

Yes, you can. Most states prohibit naming a father without either a marriage license or a DNA test. Of course, if you are unmarried and sue the child's father for child support, the father's name will be added to the birth certificate. Also, in almost all child support cases, the child's last name is changed to the father's last name.

Can you trace George burns family tree back to Poland?

I think you can't trace George Burns' family tree back to Poland, but back to Austria, since his parents came from there as his death certificate says. Furthermore, you have to search for his original surname 'Birnbaum' and his mother's surname 'Bluth'.
