Ensuring Paternal Support Across States
Summary
To ensure paternal support for your grandchild, establish paternity legally in North Carolina through an Affidavit of Parentage or a court-ordered paternity test. Use the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA) to enforce child support if the father lives out of state, such as in Florida. A minor father in North Carolina has rights similar to an adult, including establishing paternity and seeking custody or visitation. If the father is unemployed, the court may calculate support based on potential earnings. A mother can apply for TANF, and the state may seek reimbursement from the father. If the fathers name is not on the birth certificate, he can still establish paternity. For government insurance for a baby, apply through Medicaid or CHIP in North Carolina.Full Conversation
