Arizona Voluntary Paternity Procedures are a set of rules and regulations governing the establishment of paternity in the state of Arizona. These procedures are necessary to ensure the legal rights of both the father and the child. There are two main types of Arizona Voluntary Paternity Procedures: Acknowledgment of Paternity and Genetic Testing. Acknowledgment of Paternity is a process in which the father signs an Acknowledgment of Paternity form, thereby legally acknowledging his paternity. This form is signed in the presence of two witnesses and is typically filed with the Arizona Department of Health Services. Genetic Testing is the process of confirming the father’s identity through a DNA test. The results of this test are used to establish the father’s legal paternity. This test can be conducted at a hospital or laboratory approved by the Arizona Department of Health Services. Once paternity is legally established, the father is responsible for providing financial support for the child, as well as other legal rights and obligations. It is important to note that these procedures are completely voluntary and can be terminated at any time.
