Child Support Modifications

A change in the state of affairs of a parent can result in a child support agreement needing to be modified or altered.  In the State of Arizona, a parent is entitled to apply for this type of alteration on the basis of a change that is “substantial and continuing.”  The matters that can be included within this definition will differ according to the matter in hand, but can include:

  • An employment change
  • An income adjustment, such as an increase or decrease
  • Amendment of parenting schedules
  • Altered child daycare costs
  • Altered school costs
  • Altered child medical expenses

Modifying a child support agreement necessitates a request to be filed along with a ‘Parent’s Worksheet for Child Support’ being completed.  Documentation proving a change in earnings must be attached, should this be the reason for the request.  Assistance in gathering the required data and filling out the paperwork in the correct manner can be obtained from one of our custody attorneys, who can also submit it as it should be to ensure the best possible outcome.  When a court case results from the need to defend against the other parent’s desire to modify a child support agreement, an attorney can be a strong advocate in this situation.
