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. |

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... |

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. |
