Why would a birth certificate be issued without the father’s name listed?
Title 23 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes §5103(i), provides that the name of the father shall be included on the birth record of the child of unmarried parents only if: a father and mother have signed a voluntary AOP form, or a court or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction has issued an adjudication of paternity. If DVR does not receive notification that paternity was established by one of these methods, a birth certificate is issued listing the father as “unknown”. Back to Question (A) 24.
