Child Support Order Modification

Summary

In Minnesota, the court can deviate from child support guidelines if deemed appropriate, and non-joint children are usually considered. If your child support order was calculated without accounting for your non-joint child, you may request a modification if circumstances have changed. Consulting a local attorney for personalized advice is recommended.
