My question involves child support in the State of: California
I want to file for child support but my son's father is not on his birth certificate. Can i still file without him on the bc or do i need to add him?

It's probably the easiest way to get it all started

No signature needed on BC. Once he passes the DNA, you may want to ask him politely to sign it. Just a thought. For a boy, signing up for sports teams make life easier when you submit a BC with two signatures on it.
