Child support modifications require filing a court motion and registering changes with the FRO

To modify child support through the Family Responsibility Office (FRO), you must follow a specific legal process. Here’s what you need to do:

• File a formal Motion to Change with the court that issued your original support order
• Provide documented evidence of significant changes in circumstances, such as:
  • Income changes
  • Employment status changes
  • Child’s living arrangements
• Obtain court approval for the modification
• Register the updated order with the FRO for enforcement

Professional assistance from a family law professional or divorce mediator can help ensure proper documentation and smooth processing of your modification request. The FRO will begin enforcing the new support amount once they receive the updated court order.
