a temporary job loss is not going to be

enough to change the child support

someone is paying what we have to have

is a permanent and substantial change in

circumstance in order to modify child

support

permanent and substantial

are somewhat subjective words

but it cannot be that somebody loses

their job today

and they run to the court and ask for a

modification tomorrow in order for job

loss to impact child support

there must be proof that that person has

done their very best to obtain a new job

earning a similar amount of income to

that which they were at the time the

child support was calculated
