Does anyone know what forms to file to have child support reevaluated in Utah?? We can't afford a lawyer and need help with this. Hopefully we can do it ourselves.

Here is a link
Self-Service Center: Court Forms
Thanks for the link...
My next hurdle is that human services in Utah says to do a modification until you have been at a job for 12 months (or the new rate of pay anyway) before they will do one.
My husband has been out of work since the end of summer and we have been fortunate enough to be able to qualify for unemployment, but he pays almost $900 each month in child support and we have 3 other kids. His ex gets more money per month for one kid than we have to take care our kids and ourselves at home. I have tried to get a job, but as soon as they see me and know that I am 7 1/2 month pregnant, its all over. We have lost absolutely everything in the last 4 months because they automatically take the support out of his check. Sorry about the tangent, I am just at the point where I feel so helpless and it seems like we have exhausted all options. I welcome any and all suggestions.
He is allowed to file for a modification right away due to change in circumstance. He doesn't have to wait 12 months.
Do we still have to continue to pay child support is the child is pregnant?

Yes, support continues until the legal age in your State or emancipation - or, in some States, graduation from high school.
Or are you saying this has something to do with your pregnancy?
As GV put it - what?
Sorry, clarification...
I am the one who is pregnant. I mentioned that because it is impossible for me to find a job right now since I am so close to having this baby. (oh yeah, the economy isn't helping much either, HA!)
Also, it is Utah that has told us that they won't do a review until the 12 month mark, so that is why we have to go around them and go directly to the court. Cha-Ching...
I was paying child support on 7500.00 a month and now I am on unemployment and need to lower it and can't hire an attorney and live out of state.But I am taking my daughter home on Monday and will be by a courthouse how do I lower it.What forms do I need and what steps do I take??
Thank you for any help on this.

It's pretty much been asked and answered BUT - you go to Court (don't need the child with you), file for changed circumstances. When the hearing is scheduled you take your proof with you, the other side takes proof, the Judge decides.
Again - covered at length in other posts.

So yes, HE can file for a modification because of an extreme change in circumstances.
