After the Order - Review and Adjustment
Once a child support order is in place, you can ask a court
to change it under certain circumstances. The most common reasons are when
either parent has a 25% change in gross income (usually this happens with the
loss of a job) or if a child needs to be added or taken off of the order. Some
other reasons are if day care expenses change by 25%, if there are outstanding
medical or dental expenses, or if there has been a change in health insurance
costs. Also, if you have a shared-custody arrangement and one parent
consistently fails to visit or take custody, then that is a good reason to ask
for a change in the child support order.
