Why should I establish paternity for my child/ren?
How can I establish paternity?
One way of establishing paternity is at birth. By signing an
Acknowledgement of Paternity form at the hospital, you can establish a
legal link to your child's father. Paternity can also be established
voluntarily or involuntarily through a court order. If you qualify, the
Mississippi Department of Human Services Division of Child Support
Enforcement (DCSE) can help you establish a paternal link for your
child/ren through genetic testing.
