Is Changing Venue needed?
I was divorced in Florida and have had one modification for child custody in the Florida Courts in 2009 in order to move further North in the state I resided in with the minor children. I live in the state of Georgia and I am the primary custodial parent. There are 4 children involved and we have lived in the state of Georgia for 5 years. My child support is paid to me through him and most of the time it is late. He also only visits with 3 of the four children. Can I have the children's support my ex husband pays to me modified to reflect Georgia Child-support guidelines and have it paid directly to me through the state of Georgia or would I need to request a change of venue? I would also like to modify the child visitation for the child he refuses to spend time with but I just would like to try to have things handled in the state the children and I resided in. He is still in Florida.

Thank you for your answer... so I still have to receive my child support through Florida?

He wouldn't... He doesn't agree to anything and sadly most of the things he does hurts the kids.
