How can child support be modified in the state of Florida?

Child Support can be modified through a supplemental petition for modification of child support. In order to be eligible for a modification in the child support amount, an individual would have to demonstrate that there has been an unforeseen significant and substantial change since the previous order was issued. This implies that either expenses have notably decreased or escalated, or the person’s income has significantly altered to justify a modification of child support. A supplemental petition would need to be submitted by the party seeking to amend the child support calculation.
