This will be totally up to the judge to find out for sure, if you can prove that this won't be a detriment to him, then the judge will go in your favor. But if he can prove that it would be, then he would lean towards lowering it. Hope this helps.
Can Child Support Be Lowered Due To Layoff?
Don't know state you are in but in most states yes it can be modified because of pay scale since they use that to determine the amount to be paid.
That is funny, my unemployment is only 22% of my pay. It is not even enough to cover my child support. Alone I still have to magically find money for my mortgage, utilities, car payment, etc.
Of coarse child support should be reduced. Further, most states provide for non custodial parents to file modification without costly attorneys. (called pro se)

I thought child support was based on income and at least in CA unemployment is 80% of pay so yeah...it can depending on state. Too bad the courts don't take into consideration time vs. Money to raise a child or most fathers paying child support would be living in boxes... That sure would dampen their dating life hunh? Lol
