- Whether the parent who is requesting the relocation has good intentions
- If the parent is willing and able to comply with visitation orders
After a divorce, one spouse may want to relocate with the minor children for a number of reasons. These can include high living expenses that are not sustainable for a one-parent household, employment prospects, and a desire to move closer to friends and family. No matter the reason, persuading a court to allow you to take your children and relocate to a different area is extremely difficult. One of the most important factors in getting a court to agree to allow you to move your children’s residence is to show that the move is in the children’s best interest. This could mean better employment for one parent or the ability of the child to attend a better school.
