Not sure if this is the right thread-PofAFFidavitWhat is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?California If the father refuses to sign the Patternity of Affidavit can I pursue with a DNA test? He has the PoA document with him but after talking with him I have no idea if he is going to complete it. At one point he said he would and then changed his mind 5min later. How would I pursue a DNA Test? Is this done by lawyer only? And can he refuse the test? I was told this is something one can't refuse. He was not put on the B-Cert because he was not present at the hospital. Father is in Illinois. Thank you for your time. |

![]() One other thing - you really need to have all of these parentage, custody and child support made official by the courts. Trust me - it can save you a whole lot of trouble in the future. Get it all legalized, even if you and the ex are friendly.

| I don't blame him for not signing. Based on the myriad of "Gee, I THOUGHT he was the dad. but now . . ." type posts, and the "I was told IU was dad, but now find out another guy is dad . . ." type posts, any guy would be insane to sign a paternity affidavit without DNA proof! If it were MY so, I'd STRONGLY advise him to have DNA testing first. Even if it were my daughter, I'd tell HER not to allow anyone to sign unless there is absolutely ZERO, ZERO doubt!

PofAffidavitI figured he's sign it easily since he does claim to me on the phone he is he dad. he is the father and he knows it. he just doesnt want to be on the bcert bc his parents don't know about the baby he claims he isnt going to tell them about his daughter. go figure. he is in total denial and wishes this was all just a dream. thank you again. i will do this via the courts. better safe than sorry. ![]() |

Yes, please do this through the courts. Frankly "he knows he's the father" isn't good enough (and it wouldn't be for me, either).
