How Often Can Child Support Be Modified

A parent can petition the court for a modification at any time if circumstances have changed since the last modification was granted. There are many issues that could be cause for a modification of a court order – such as a salary increase or decrease. It’s important that you speak with a qualified modifications attorney who can help you understand this process.

Reasons to Modify Child Custody

• It is common to pursue a modification if you are experiencing:
• A change in residence
• A decrease in income
• The loss of employment
• An increase in income
• An increase in the cost of caring for children
• The need to relocate out of the state
• A change in work schedule

Sometimes, parents will communicate with each other personally to try to work out an arrangement that works for them. This can lead to legal problems if one party appeals to the court saying that the other party is not fulfilling their side of the arrangement. By going to the court for a modification, there is a legally binding agreement that is reflective of your specific circumstances.
