Points of interest which may qualify for a modification claim often include a change of employment status and income of either party, if one of the parents chooses to move away from the area of jurisdiction which the child currently resides, if a child is considered old enough to choose change which parent they will primarily reside with, or other relevant changes in family law related conditions
