Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024

The establishment of a child's paternity may give the child rights to future social security, veteran's or other government benefits as well as inheritance rights should the non-custodial parent become disabled or deceased. The amount established for child support (with medical support) under child support award guidelines can help provide financially for the child. Medical support in the form of private health insurance can help provide for the medical needs of the child. Pursuant to federal law, the IV-D agency is required to make determinations related to custodial party cooperation in locating absent and alleged parents, establishing parentage, and establishing and enforcing support obligations in Title IV-A cases.
