I'm jamaican and my child and his mother is american. The child has my last name but my name is not on the birth certificate. How do I go about getting my name affixed to it?

Is the mom OK with it, or have you proven paternity though the courts ?

The mom is okay with it. We just want to know the process. State of birth is New York.

There are several ways to do it.
1 You and the mother sign Acknowledgment of paternity.
2.You go through Court procedures.
