Notice of Intent to Relocate (Custodial Parent)
Required notice to the other parent and the court when a custodial parent plans to move with the children beyond a specified distance.
Instructions
Provide at least 30-60 days advance notice (varies by state). State the proposed new address, moving date, and reason for relocation. Propose a revised parenting schedule. The non-relocating parent may file an objection, triggering a court hearing. Courts evaluate relocation requests based on the child's best interests, considering the reason for the move, impact on the child's relationship with the other parent, and educational opportunities.
