Wanting to Keep Childsuport but Want Dad of Bc

My question involves child support in the State of: Utah
My ex boyfriend signed my sons birth certificate and now pays child support. He decided two months ago that he was never going to see my son again. And so far he hasn't. I now don't want him on the BC but want to keep getting child support. There was a blood test done and he is 99% the father. Is there anyway I can??

Sure.

Get married, and have your new husband adopt the child. Oh, but you'd lose child support. Your new husband would be responsible.

Looks like you're stuck with the guy you chose to be Dad.

Well that's easier said than done. I go to school and work then put my son to bed. And that's all I do. Meeting men isn't happening at the moment. I'd like to, but I also have flakey babysitters so that's not something I can count on. And the internet has done nothing but sent men who only want sex and I don't want that. So . . . yeah.

So...I'm not sure what else to say.

He is legally the child's father and you can't reverse that easily (if at all).

Even if you do marry though, remember that if your new husband does adopt there'll be no more child support.

I'm fine if I don't get CS if by the time I'm married and my then husband wants to adopt my son. By then I'll be done with school and hopefully I'll have a better job and wont really need it (but it's always a nice added income). Thanks guys!

Just out of curosity...Why do you want him off the BC? He still the father either way? Let say you could remove it, anyone looking at the BC would think you don't know who the father is, the father was not present during the birth, or they would think that your child was from a one-night stand, or something on that line.

It is not something you want to take off, unless the father is a well known criminal...ect

You do understand that Dad has the right to file for joint custody and regular visitation, correct?

And that if Dad objects to any sort of adoption petition it may not happen at all?

Even if he doesn't pay child support?

Don't be ridiculous. The only way he can be taken off the birth certificate is if he isn't the actual father. Since he is, on what grounds do you POSSIBLY think he could be removed?

A birth certificate is a legal record of who a child's parents are, not who is in Mommy's good graces (or bed) at any given time.
