Complaint to Determine Parentage This form is used to establish paternity and/or to request the court to order blood tests, change the name of the minor child or grant custody or visitation rights. Parentage Summons This form is used by a petitioner to provide notice to the respondent of the filing of his or her Complaint to Determine Parentage. Notice of Motion- Domestic Relations This form is used to provide notice to the court and the parties that a motion has been filed in a domestic relations case, such as a paternity action. Uniform Order for Support This form is used as an order, modification or enforcement of child support or maintenance and includes information regarding the obligor’s income, amount of arrearages and retroactive support, payment arrangements and a child support data sheet. Family Support Affidavit This form is an affidavit verifying parental information that must be attached to any order for child support and/or spousal maintenance. Notice to Withhold Income for Support This form is a notice to an employer to deduct a certain amount from an employee's income in payment of court-ordered child support and/or spousal maintenance. Order for Parentage Testing This form is used in a paternity action to order that the mother, the putative father and the child undergo DNA testing to determine parentage of the child. Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity This form is used to acknowledge parental rights and obligations and to eliminate the need to establish paternity through a legal action or court proceeding. It legally establishes the biological parent/child relationship when the biological father is not married to the child's mother and allows the biological father's name to be placed on the child's birth certificate. Paternity Law and Procedure Handbook This Paternity Law and Procedure Handbook provides state-specific paternity resources for establishing paternity, and discusses the relevant law and procedures regarding voluntary paternity establishment and paternity establishment through court action.

III. TIPS ON COMPLETING THE FORMS The form(s) in this packet may contain “form fields” created using Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat (“.pdf” format). “Form fields” facilitate completion of the forms using your computer. They do not limit your ability to print the form “in blank” and complete with a typewriter or by hand. It is also helpful to be able to see the location of the form fields. Go to the View menu, click on Toolbars, and then select Forms. This will open the Forms toolbar. Look for the button on the Forms toolbar that resembles a shaded letter “a”. Click this button and the form fields will be visible. By clicking on the appropriate form field, you will be able to enter the needed information. In some instances, the form field and the line will disappear after information is entered. In other cases, it will not. The form was created to function in this manner. IV.
