Modification of Custody & Support
The child custody, visitation and support agreements appropriate at the time of your divorce may not be appropriate years later if your circumstances or the circumstances of your ex-spouse or child have changed. The following are examples of when you can seek a modification of your divorce agreement:
- If your child support payments were calculated prior to January 1, 2007, you may be entitled to a modification if you would pay or receive a different amount under the new child support guidelines.
- If the income of either parent has changed substantially, it could result in an increase or decrease in the amount of child support to be paid by the noncustodial parent.
- If a child is not doing well in school or at home, child custody and visitation rights may be changed.
- If a custodial parent wishes to relocate, child custody and visitation may be changed. The custodial parent cannot move the child out-of-state without court approval.
- If a child is abused or neglected by a parent, that parent's custody or visitation rights may be changed, taken away or made subject to court supervision.
