- Begin by filling out the child's information section. Provide the child's full name as it will appear on the birth certificate, including their first name, middle name (if applicable), last name, date of birth, gender, and place of birth.
- Next, enter the biological father's information. Fill in their first name, middle name (if any), last name, date of birth, and place of birth. Additionally, include their address and daytime phone number.
- Proceed to the biological mother's section. Input her first name, middle name (if applicable), last name, date of birth, place of birth, address, current last name, maiden name, and daytime phone number.
- Indicate whether the biological mother was married to or in a civil union with someone other than the child's biological father when the child was born or within 300 days prior. If 'yes', provide the presumed parent's name.
- Review the rights and responsibilities specified in the form. Ensure that both parents understand that by signing the VAP, they acknowledge their legal relationship to the child and understand the implications.
- Each parent must sign the form in front of a witness who is at least 18 years old. The witness cannot be a parent or the child named on the form.
- Once the form is fully completed and signed, double-check all entries for accuracy. It's important that all items are answered, and signatures are present.
- Submit the original signed form by mailing it to the Administrative Coordination Unit (ACU) at the specified address. Do not send photocopies as only original documents are accepted.
- After mailing, you may wish to save the filled form as a PDF or print a copy for your records. You could also share the completed form with relevant parties if necessary.

Legitimation refers to the legal process of making a child legitimate, often through marriage of parents, while acknowledgment is a specific declaration of paternity. Under IL HFS 3416B, acknowledgment is a voluntary act that validates the father's relationship with the child. Both processes ensure the child's legal status is secure, but they operate differently.
