If a welfare mom in NY lied about knowing who the father was for 16 yrs,can she be charged for welfare fraud?

Yes, she could but unfortunitely they don't enforce the law in NY because there are so many offenders, they wouldn't have room in the jails...

You mean that the parents are using the child's name to obtain credit cards or other legal documents?  \n\nYou can let the parents know that you are aware of their actions, and want them to stop before you take it to the authorities.  Maybe they will do the right thing.\n\nIf not, you can contact the involved parties to let them know of the situation. and stop any further transactions from being made.\n\nYou could also ontact the police, identify theft is a crime.  I would think that would be a last resort, however, considering the consequences.  Possibly a call to Child Services would get an investigation started into the matter.

If you can prove they did it they can go to jail for a long long time. Not only did they "steal you identity" they also stole from the Social Security board. Call you local officials and try to steal this. The sooner the better!

Unless they tell you, or you find out from documentation, you can't. By ordering it by court, can get you into some pretty high cost. If the person tested, is found out not to be your parent. You can be sued. Just ask nicely and they may tell you, or they could just lie to you as well. Good Luck!

Your son did good by leaving and should counter file against her for filing false police report. Also if there were any adult witness in the facility it would be best for him to get statements form them to take with him that he was the bigger person and left.

y is he being charged when she lied about her age, he thought he was doing nothing wrong, \n\ni think there should be a better law in place because it makes the man to be bad all the time ( i am a woman) when she lied about her age, what was he supposed to do ask for id

First off, to make a claim of "30 PERCENT OF WOMEN WHO CLAIMS THAT A GUY IS THE FATHER OF THEIR CHILD AT THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICE IS LYING" without sourcing facts is rather unfair. Secondly, the alleged father can request a paternity test at the hearing, if he shows up.  Finally, in some cases, paternity is already established, so there would be no need for the test.

It would have to be proven in court that the child's welfare would be better in their custody. Childrens services would be involved and you would have to be proven unfit or unable to properly care for your child. But everything would have to be proven.

yes if her parents press charges

well, almost certainly you would need to call your local police or sherriff's office, if you want to report her for a crime.. or the state family services board, if you want to help the children..  but i can't tell you how to do that since i don't know where you live.\n\nsorry!  guess they're doomed to a life of hardship and despair.

Whether it is true depends on exactly what she was actually told.\nIf she had just posted bail/bond for the guy; then yes, she is legally responsible for him until his court date. That's the same for anyone putting up an appearance bond: you are legally responsible for the person showing up to court.\nIf they told her she could be legally responsible for him cooking in the house; that's a little gray. If she had any prior knowledge at all, she could be held legally responsible for not removing the children from the danger he posed by using the house for a meth lab.\nNow, there is a secondary element at work here. You said they were living together for about ten years. Depending on their conduct, and the laws regarding it in IA, the argument could be made that they actually *are* married, at least by common law; which would open her up to more liability.

In todays day and age, you most likely can. If she has a decent job I'm sure you can find a lawyer that can give you the best info answer.

The problem is that it's not the baby's fault if its mother lied, or its father was gullible, or whatever.  Child support rights belong to the child, and the mother in this case never had the authority to waive them or bargain them away. Support of children is pretty much an absolute duty of parents; prospective parents have to factor that in before deciding what to do or believe.

Just the fact that she wasn't honest about who the father actually is can help prove that she's unfit.  Tell him to contact an attorney right away and see about getting custody.

The simple answer: yes.\n\nIf someone has the right sources at their fingertips, they could do anything. Someone could use your name to find your mailing address, and use your name and mailing address to pull up your credit report, which would have your social security number. With a little bit of research they could find out your mother's maiden name...you see where this is going.

I would say yes but you could be penalized for lying if it went back to court\n\nGood Luck and God Bless!!

You, personally can't find this out. It is confidential. If the person is suspected of fraud, you should report it to the agency, and let them handle it from there.
