ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PATERNITY
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND REMOVE THIS PAGE BEFORE COMPLETION
The purpose of this form is to acknowledge paternity for a child born out of wedlock.
This Acknowledgment of Paternity IS NOT applicable if the mother of the child was married at the time of birth or was
married at any time in the ten months immediately preceding such birth pursuant to A.R.S. § 25-814, unless accompanied
by a Waiver of Paternity Affidavit.
COMPLETION

Read the “Acknowledgment of Paternity” (CS-127) and the Notice of Alternatives, The legal Consequences and the
Rights and Responsibilities.
•
Only use BLACK INK. Colored inks ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE. Type or print all required information except where sig-
natures are required. The Spanish translation on the last page is for reference only. Please complete the English side.
•
DO NOT MAKE CORRECTIONS ON THE FORM. Forms with crossouts, erasures, alterations, etc., will invalidate
the Acknowledgment. DO NOT SUBMIT AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT CONTAINING SUCH CHANGES. If you make a
mistake, ask for a new form and begin again.
•
Fill in every blank or box on the form. Incomplete or incorrect information may cause delays in the filing of the
Acknowledgment.
•
In cases of multiple births, a separate Acknowledgment for each child must be completed.
•
The Acknowledgment must be signed in the presence of a Witness or Notary Public. Each parent must sign
their name on all copies of the form and each signature must be witnessed or notarized. Each parent must show the
Witness or Notary appropriate, valid identification. The parents should use their legal name only. Nicknames, short-
ened name, etc., SHOULD NOT be used. Your Legal Name is the one that appears on your birth certificate, or other

separate Acknowledgments the child’s information should be identical on each form. All blanks must be completed
and both Acknowledgments submitted together.
•
If you are changing the child’s name, after 3 months of age only the last name of the child can be changed using
this form. Any other changes must be requested through the Office of Vital Records.
