[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Recipient's Name] [Recipient's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Request for Reduction in Child Support Payments Dear [Recipient's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to discuss my current financial situation, which has undergone significant changes since the establishment of the child support order for [Child's Name]. As a resident of North Carolina, I am seeking a reduction in the child support payments to better align them with my present financial resources. I would like to highlight some crucial aspects that have resulted in the need for a modification of the child support order: 1. Change in Employment: I have recently experienced a substantial reduction in my income due to a job loss/downsizing/reduction in working hours. The financial instability resulting from this circumstance makes it increasingly challenging for me to meet the current child support obligation. 2. Financial Hardship: Haystacks of bills and mounting debts have become a daily struggle for me. It is essential to consider that the elevated costs of living, including but not limited to housing expenses, utilities, healthcare, and transportation have made it immensely burdensome for me to fulfill my parental responsibilities efficiently. 3. Unforeseen Medical Expenses: Unfortunately, my child has faced unexpected medical expenses recently, making it even more difficult for me to manage the existing child support payments, along with these additional financial obligations. The unforeseen medical costs have further accentuated my financial hardships. In light of these circumstances, I kindly request a reduction in the child support payments to ensure that I can provide a stable and supportive environment for my child, despite the financial obstacles I am currently facing. I firmly believe that a modification in the child support order is necessary in order to maintain the well-being of [Child's Name] as well as my own. I understand the importance of fulfilling my parental responsibilities and contributing to the upbringing of my child. However, I kindly request your understanding and empathy regarding the current situation. I am open to discussing a mutually agreeable solution that ensures the best interests of everyone involved. I have attached the required financial documents to support my claims of an inability to meet the current child support obligation. These documents include bank statements, pay stubs, tax returns, and any other relevant records that can provide an accurate representation of my financial situation. I kindly request that you review my case and consider granting a reduction in the child support payments accordingly. I am prepared to attend any necessary hearings or meetings to discuss this matter further. Thank you for your attention to this request. I sincerely hope that we can come to a reasonable and fair resolution that prioritizes the best interests of our child. Please do not hesitate to contact me at [Phone Number] or [Email Address] if any additional information is required or if you would like to discuss this matter further. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
