WISCONSIN Part 44

Can I move with the children?

If you have physical placement of the child and you wish to move the child out of Wisconsin, move the children more than 150 miles from your home at the time the court order was made, or remove the children from Wisconsin for more than 90 consecutive days, you must provide written notice to the other parent at least 60 days before the move. If the other parent objects, you cannot move until the issue is resolved.*

Disobeying a custody order can have serious consequences. Please read our section on Parental Kidnapping for more information and talk to a local attorney or domestic violence service organization to help you in this process. See WI Finding a Lawyer and WI State and Local Programs.
