If paternity is not established through marriage or by being on the birth certificate, a father will not have a legal claim to the child. If a father is not on the birth certificate in North Carolina, he will need to establish paternity by filing an Affidavit of Parentage.
To voluntarily add a fathers name to a Birth Certificate, both the Mother and Father complete a form known as an Affidavit of Parentage at the Clerk of Courts office (704-832-6600). Once completed, the document is then submitted to the State Department of Vital Records to amend the Birth Certificate.
In North Carolina, a fathers rights can be terminated due to abandonment if he has willfully abandoned the child for at least 6 consecutive months (or an infant for at least 60 consecutive days).
If the mother is not married at the time of birth, paternity may be established by both parents signing an Acknowledgment of Paternity (CS-127) in the presence of a notary or witness. (The Acknowledgment is available from the Division of Child Support Services (DCSS) Hospital Paternity Program.)
Yes, signing the birth certificate generally indicates that you are acknowledging yourself as the childs legal parent. This means you are accepting both rights and responsibilities associated with parenthood, including providing financial support and making decisions regarding the childs welfare.
