There are 2 main ways to establish parentage when the childs parents are not married: Signing a voluntary declaration of parentage or paternity, OR. Getting a court order (either on your own or with the help of the Local Child Support Agency).
California couples can file for divorce during a pregnancy, but they will face certain challenges, namely over paternity. A pregnant woman or her husband can certainly file for divorce during the pregnancy, but theyll need to wait until after the baby is born to finalize it due to paternity questions.
If the child was born while the couple was married, the husband is the legal father. However, keep in mind that legal father doesnt mean biological father. Sometimes, a divorce can cause the legal father to start questioning his paternity.
Copies of this form are maintained in confidential files of the State Coordinator at the Parentage Opportunity Program (POP) of the Department of Child Support Services (DCSS). Declarants have the right of access to their filed form(s) upon request by calling (866) 249-0773.
The affidavit of acknowledgment executed by the father should be registered with the civil registry office where the birth of the child was registered.

A voluntary declaration of parentage or paternity is a California governmental form that, when signed by both parents, establishes them as the legal parents of the child. The form must be signed voluntarily. No one can force either person to sign the form.
If you are married to someone other than the father of your child and you want the biological fathers name on your childs birth certificate, you need two forms: an Affidavit of Non-paternity and a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage form.
If you have decided to start a parentage case with the court, follow these steps: Fill out your court forms. Fill out 1 of these court forms too if you want a child support order: Have your forms reviewed. Make at least 2 copies of all your forms. File your forms with the court clerk. Serve your papers on the other parent.
We must establish parentage (a legal parent-child relationship) for a child in order to obtain a court order for child support and health insurance coverage. Usually that means establishing legal paternity of a man.
You must file the rescission form with the Department of Child Support Services within 60 days from the date you signed the Declaration of Paternity. Only 1 parent needs to sign and file the form, but the other parent must be formally notified by certified mail with return receipt requested.
