If a father has been paying child support but the mother is collecting welfare fraudulently is the father responsible to pay back the state if he didn't know?
I am pretty sure it would be the mother's responsibility since she is the one who is getting welfare by fraud.
The mother of my children gets child support and my children don't live with her Is this illegal and can i take her to court for back pay?
You need to go to court to modify your child support agreement. Yes, as long as your old agreement hasn't been modified, she can legally collect child support from you. There may be provisions in your support agreement by which your children do not have to reside with her, especially if the money is still going toward their support. The court probably won't make your ex-wife pay back the money, but it will give you credit for having paid it.

Will my child get his fathers last name in the state of Georgia since we are not legally married?
The father would need to prove paternity if the parents were not married. He would also need to provide evidence the change in name is in the best interest of the child. If the child lives with the mother who has custody it is unlikely the court will allow the name change. If the father didn't marry the child's mother there is no reason for the court to allow the child's name to be changed.
