im not on the babies birth certificate do i still have to pay the csa?

Answer 1

have you taken a paternity test or admitted to being the father of the child? If you did, then the answer is YES, it makes no differeance if you are on the birth certificate or not.
If it is questionable if you are the father, ask for a paternity test.

Answer 2

i have had 7 years of the csa been payin it for that long and i pay £198 a month just found out he is not mine so i get all that money back,if u dont pay they can contact your employer and deduct it from earnigs without your permission and they back date it from he was born or when she puts a claim in if u deny it they wil ask for a dna test and u wil have 2 pay for it if it cums pack u r the father and its about £489 and u have 2 use there dna centre they give u, been down this road i cought my first misses in bed with sum 1 and 6 weeks later she told me she was pregnant had 7 years of stress thru csa no help what so ever if u can sort out between u do it that way but pay her by cheque or make her sign sum thing 2 say she has recieved it then if csa get do get involved u have paid sum thing then they dont back date it

Answer 3

If you are the babies father you still have to pay the csa if you are on the birth certificate or not!!

Answer 4

Probably.

If you decide not to pay it because you're not on the birth certificate, she can petition the court to compel you to pay. At that point, they'd most likely order a paternity test, and if it comes back that you're the baby's father, they can require you to pay it.

Just do the right thing. If you know your'e the baby's father, provide for it. You don't have to be dad of the year or anything, but you were one of the two people who set the ball in motion, resulting in a person being born. You should be responsible for the baby's financial well-being.

Answer 5

my partner is going through the same thing so i know how it feels he pays £240 a month for both his children however he found out that with the youngest he isn't on the birth certificate and therefore doesn't have the same surname as him after 8 years it was a bit of a shock as his ex enrolled him at school and eveything with my partners surname so he wouldn't find out.
you'll have to have a paternity test

Answer 6

I think if u say ur arent the father and she says that u are then u are made to have a paternity test, if u are the father and no u are, then u should want to pay for your child. You helped make it and even if u never wanted it or dont like the mother anymore its just tough. Somethings u can never undo.

Answer 7

If you are the father yes. If a woman is claiming you are the father of a baby and you think you are not a blood test will prove it one way or the other. Much as I detest fathers who don't pay child support, it also wrong to make someone who is not the father pay.

Answer 8

I thought the CSA had been shut down (maybe I am wrong) but surely it is your moral responsibility to provide for your child.

Answer 9

If you admit to being and act as though you have been the father, why wouldn't you want your children to have what you would give them anyway.

Think. If you been reasonable with the mother to begin with, would the CSA have been required?

Answer 10

you are the dad pay for your child, why do you think that you can get off the mum cant stand up and be a man ,or do you want your child to go with out i hope they make you pay DNA is a wonderful thing .hope you turn out to be a good father figure for your child see sex costs make your contribution now without being told to no one should be told to keep their child go on do the decent thing send some money for your child you might reap the benefits later on hope so
