The Child Support Order Modification Kit (21 pages) provides the necessary forms to request the Court for a change in the amount of a child support order. The kit is for use in simple cases, where the only issue is the amount of the order. If your case is complicated, you should talk to a lawyer. The kit includes a section called "What if I Need a Lawyer."
A support order can only be changed if three years have passed since the date of the latest order for support OR there has been a substantial change in circumstances that makes the original order unfair to one or both of the parties. |
