Yes: by signing an acknowledgment of paternity; by having been married to the mother of the child when the child was conceived or born; by failing to appear for an appointment with the child support agency, a court date or paternity test.

∙ 13y agoChild support cannot be ordered if paternity has not been established. However, a court can order a DNA test and order the father to pay back child support all the way from the birth of the child.

∙ 12y agoCurrently DNA is used to establish or confirm paternity. The man should request a DNA test through the court if he wants to contest the child support order. He should consult with an attorney..
Paternity must be established before an order for support is entered. This is done by: genetic testing; presumption, where the parties were married when the child was born/conceived; acknowledgment of paternity either in writing or in open court; default, where the alleged father fails to cooperate in the process.

∙ 11y agoIf you are married the husband is automatically considered the father so then no DNA is required but if not married the father have to provide DNA test in court in order to prove paternity and he can then petition for custody, visitation and pay child support. Just signing the birth certificate will not hold up in court since the birth certificate does not require DNA testing. This is to prevent the wrong man paying child support. Only the biological parents pays for their child.

∙ 12y agoIf the parents were married at the time the child was conceived, yes.
If the parents are unmarried and the father signed the birth certificate, yes.

A judge can order child support from the father if a court-ordered DNA test proves that he is the child's father.
Once a court-ordered DNA test establishes parentage what happens next?
If the person whose DNA was tested is determined to be the father then a child support order will be entered.
What if the child your wife gave birth to is not yours?
DNA tests and court ordered child support, the guy may want visitation rights. Could always divorce.
What if you never signed the birth cirtificate and never had a DNA test can you still have child support?
Yes. The court requires a DNA test be done before granting child support. If you are not willing to give one the mother can ask for a court ordered one. That will prove paternity and also give you parental rights as petitioning for visitation or custody as well as paying child support.

Does a man have to take a DNA test immediately after he received child support review paper in Texas?
As soon as court ordered, but he usually has to request it. see links
Can you pay for child support before you find out DNA results?
Yes, but it can be considered a gift by the court, with retroactive support ordered later. In Ohio, it is specifically designated as such under rule of law. Anything paid prior to the court order would not be counted as "support payment".
How do you go about establishing paternity of a child conceived during an act of adultery?
Through a DNA test ordered by the family court if necessary. If it is the husband who questions the paternity of his wife's child, he can then disclaim the child. Otherwise he may be required to support the child. The husband should consult with an attorney. If a wife suspects her husband has fathered a child out of wedlock she should consult with an attorney. Her husband will be required to support the child and he can be ordered to submit to a DNA test to prove his paternity.

You pay 600 per month child support to the State of Texas for a child you have never seen but who has your DNA The child will be 18 years old in June 2009 Does that end your court ordered obligation?
As long as there is no back-support owed (Child support that is owed from previous months not paid) then 18 is the cut off limit for child support and you would no longer be obligated to pay. HOWEVER, in the state of Texas, if the child continues into college, the legal guardian of the child can bring you to court to continue the support until the child graduates from college.
