Texas Record of Support — Form 1828 is a form used in the state of Texas to establish and document the legal parent-child relationship between a child and a parent. It is used to establish paternity or to acknowledge paternity of a child in the state. It is also used to establish a child's right to receive certain benefits from the state. There are three types of Texas Record of Support — Form 1828: Acknowledgement of Paternity, Parentage Order, and Genetic Test Results. The Acknowledgement of Paternity form is used to establish paternity without conducting a genetic test. The Parentage Order form is used when a court orders a parent-child relationship between the child and the parent. The Genetic Test Results form is used when a court orders a genetic test to prove parentage.
