How much does it cost to establish paternity using the administrative process?
Paternity and order establishment services are FREE at the Office of Recovery Services/Child Support Services. A schedule of fees charged for various collection services that may occur after paternity and child support are established is included with the application for services. However, the parent who applies for paternity establishment may choose to close the case after the paternity order is issued instead of using the child support services offered by ORS/CSS.
