15 AAC 125.217. Notice of paternity and financial responsibility

(a) After receiving a written application for paternity determination under 15 AAC 125.216(a) , unless the application is denied under 15 AAC 125.216(b) , the agency will serve the child's mother, the child's legal guardian if not the mother, and the child's putative father, as appropriate, with a notice of paternity and financial responsibility. The agency will serve the notice in the manner and in the form required by AS 25.27.165 (b).

(b) A person served with a notice of paternity and financial responsibility under (a) of this section shall file a response with the agency within 30 days after the date of service. The response must either admit or deny paternity and provide the required financial and medical insurance information in the form required by 15 AAC 125.040(b) and (c).

(c) If the putative father timely files a written admission of paternity, the agency will issue a decision establishing paternity unless

(1) the putative father was the individual who filed the application for paternity determination; or

(2) the agency, a child support enforcement agency of another state, or a party requests genetic testing and supports the request with an affidavit meeting the requirements of AS 25.20.050 (e).

(d) If a party files a written denial of paternity, the putative father, the child, and the mother of the child shall submit to genetic testing within 45 days after the date of service of the notice of paternity and financial responsibility under (a) of this section unless a party's request under (e) of this section is pending before the agency.

(e) A person served with a notice of paternity and financial responsibility under (a) of this section may request under 15 AAC 125.218 that the agency vacate its genetic testing order for the reasons stated in 15 AAC 125.218(c) . The request must be filed with the agency within 30 days after the date the party was served under (a) of this section.

(f) If the person served with a notice of paternity and financial responsibility under (a) of this section fails to file a response within 30 days after the date of service, or fails to comply with an agency order for genetic testing, the agency will enter a default finding of paternity under 15 AAC 125.212.
