Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

What amount of time has to pass without contact to file for abandonment and terminate a non-custodial parents rights in Michigan? My child is 7 and hasn't seen her father since she was 3. We do not know where he lives, nor have I ever received child support payments. He did file an affidavit of parentage after she was born, but has never filed for visitation or child support.
