In Alaska, you may qualify for a child support modification if there has been a substantial change in circumstances since the initial child support order was issued. Here are some factors to consider when determining if you qualify:
A Change in Income May Justify a Modification in Child Support
If there has been a significant change in your income or the other parent's income, such as job loss, promotion, or a substantial increase or decrease in earnings, you may be eligible for a modification.
A Child Custody Modification
If there has been a change in the custody arrangement, such as a change in the amount of time the child spends with each parent, you may be eligible for a modification.
Other Relevant Factors in Child Support Modification
Alaska considers various other circumstances when determining if a modification is warranted. These factors may include changes in the cost of living, the child's needs, or any other significant changes that impact the child's well-being.
