Can you be put on Child Support if you are not on the Birth Certificate?
In short - yes. You can be put on child support if you are not on the child's birth certificate. It actually doesn't matter whether or not your name is on the birth certificate of your child in the state of Florida. What matters is if you've been established as a legal parent of the child.
For mothers, they are the legal parent as soon as the child is born in Florida. For fathers, it's not that simple. Fathers can establish paternity by either being legally married to the mother (before the child is born) or by petitioning for paternity in court. Only after you've been established as the legal parent will child support be assessed.
So, fathers can't even be asked for child support until they are established as the legal parent - however, that also means that fathers have no rights to see their children if they are not established as the legal parent. It's in the father's best interest to establish paternity and pay child support if the mother will not allow him to see his children.
