if u the biological father can u b added 2 the child's birth certificate and how would i go about 2 do it ?

Answer 1

If the birth was originally registered without the father's details, and the father wants to be recognised, the birth can be re-registered.

If the baby's parents are unmarried and would like the natural father’s details added to the birth record, a re-registration will be required so that a new birth record can be created to replace the original one. To do this, you will need to complete a form GRO185.

If the baby's natural parents have married each other since the birth, a re-registration will be required so that a new birth record can be created to show the child as a child of the parents’ marriage. To do this, you will need to complete a form LA1.

Both these forms are obtainable from your local Register Office.

Register Offices are run by the local Council. Call the Council number and ask to speak to a Registrar.

Answer 2

Some states you and the mother can simply sign an acceptance of paternity in front of a notary (paper has to be drawn up by a lawyer), but both must sign it. Some states require a paternity test first to prove it and then you will be given a paper that says you are the father. Either way, once you have one of those papers you can simply mail it to vital records for your state and they will amend the birth certificate and refile it. Hope this helps!

Answer 3

Yes, but you will need to fill out paternity paper and both you and the mother will need to sign and have the papers notarized before sending them in to the state. You should be able to get paternity papers at any courthouse, and as long as both you and the mother are in agreement there isn't a need to involve a lawyer. The papers can be signed and notarized at any bank (sometimes they charge a few dollars for this service) and the courthouse where you get the papers can tell you where to send them once they are completed. If the baby hasn't left the hospital, the hospital staff can also provide you with the paper and help you file them.

Answer 4

yes but u must be there at the registrars. If u can't be there 4 whatever reason ask the child's mother to ask 4 a "yellow form" (i had 2 do this with my 1st child) when she registers the baby and then u can both go back and have the certificate changed to add your name. If u aren't with the baby's mother and she is refusing to add your name i'm sure u r legally entitled but u would have to make sure with your local registrar

Answer 5

you would go down to your local health department and ask for the birth records department and they'll ask you to fill out a paternity acknowledgement agreement form and your name will be added to the state certificate.

Answer 6

BIRTH REGISTERATION DEPT. DOES A PATERNITY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, see the local council

Answer 7

It varies, depending on where you live.
