When a child is born to parents who are not married to each other, hospitals must give an Acknowledgment of Paternity (03PA209E) form to the parents. The hospitals must also give paperwork and tell the parents of their rights and duties when establishing paternity.
A home DNA paternity test (for personal knowledge and peace of mind only) costs $130 to $200. A legal DNA paternity test (with court-admissible results) for child support, child visitation, and immigration, typically costs $300 to $500, and includes professional DNA collection.
How do I establish paternity for my child? You and your child's father can complete the form for free in the hospital when your child is born. It's also free to do the form at a local Department of Social Services (DSS) office. And you can do the form at DSS even if you aren't receiving services from them.
The Acknowledgement of Parentage form is a sworn statement voluntarily completed by the parents at the hospital at the time the child is born, or at a later date at any local office of the Department of Social Services (see Directory of Department of Social Services Offices), or at the Department of Public Health.
If there is a disagreement in terms of paternity, the court may order DNA testing. If the paternity test is court-ordered, neither the mother nor the presumed father can refuse to test.
