FAQ
While the standard answer is that child support can be modified every three years, exceptions are made when there is a substantial change in circumstances. If you've experienced a significant change in your income or your child's needs, it may be worth exploring your options for an earlier modification.
Child Support Modification Tips Act Quickly. Inform Yourself. Try To Reach an Agreement With the Other Parent. Keep Making Your Child Support Payments as Best You Can. Document Your Change in Circumstances. File Your Request for Child Support Modification With the Court.
To initiate a modification process, a parent must file a motion with the court issuing the original child support order. This motion should detail the changes in circumstances and how they justify a modification. The court will then review the motion, and if it finds the request reasonable, it will schedule a hearing.
In your letter, you must identify who you are, state specifically what your change in circumstance is, and definitively request a review of your case. You will send this letter to the CSE caseworker assigned to your case in the regional office that enforces your order. You can find that information on the CSE website.
While the standard answer is that child support can be modified every three years, exceptions are made when there is a substantial change in circumstances. If you've experienced a significant change in your income or your child's needs, it may be worth exploring your options for an earlier modification.
Enter your personal information including name, address, and social security number. Describe the change in circumstance that justifies a downward modification of child support. Attach relevant documents that substantiate your claim. Address the letter to the appropriate caseworker as indicated.
The only way you can get a modification to a child support order is to prove a decrease in your income over the past year. Since child support is based upon a percentage of the non custodial parent's income, the amount will decrease.
A parent's support obligation for all biological and legal children may not exceed 45% of his or her monthly net income.
