Q) Hi, Im pregnant and would like to contact the suspected Father of my child in regards to the Child Support process and where he would begin. He did mention a couple of months ago that he was willing to pay child support but nothing else. I want to establish Paternity first and foremost. However I believe he recently moved to another state and I was wondering if there was a way he could send his DNA sample after the baby is born to the Court recommended Testing Lab near me in Aurora, IL.
A) I recommend you contact your Court recommended Testing Lab and ask them what is their procedure on getting the DNA sample from the Father of your child if he is located in another State.
Step 1: Open a child support case.
Step 2: Locate the noncustodial parent (NCP)
Step 3: Establish paternity.
Step 4: File a support order.
Step 5: Set-up payment.
Step 6: Enforce the support order.
Step 7: Review the order.
