REGISTRATION AND MODIFICATION OF
CHILD SUPPORT ORDER
|
(750 ILCS 22/609)
Sec. 609.
Procedure to register child-support order of
another state for
modification. A party or support enforcement agency seeking to modify, or to
modify and enforce, a child-support order issued in
another state shall
register that order in this State in the same manner provided in Part 1 if the
order has not been registered. A petition for modification
may
be filed at the same time as a request for registration, or later. The
pleading must specify the grounds for modification.

Sec. 610.
Effect of registration for modification.
A tribunal of this State
may enforce a child-support order of another state registered for purposes of
modification, in the same manner as if the order had been issued by a tribunal
of this State, but the registered order may be modified only if the
requirements of Section 611, 613, or 615 have been met.

Sec. 611.
Modification of Child-Support Order of Another State.
(a) If Section 613 does no apply, except as otherwise provided in Section
615, upon petition a tribunal of this State may modify a child-support order
issued in another state which is registered in this State if, after notice and
hearing, the tribunal finds that:
(1) the following requirements are met:
(A) neither the child, nor the petitioner who is
| | an individual, nor the respondent resides in the issuing state;
|
|
(B) a petitioner who is a nonresident of this
| | State seeks modification; and
|
|
(C) the respondent is subject to the personal
| | jurisdiction of the tribunal of this State; or
|
|
(2) this State is the State of residence of the
| | child, or a party who is an individual is subject to the personal jurisdiction of the tribunal of this State and all of the parties who are individuals have filed consents in a record in the issuing tribunal for a tribunal of this State to modify the support order and assume continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.
|
|
(b) Modification of a registered child-support order is subject to the same
requirements, procedures, and defenses that apply to the modification of an
order issued by a tribunal of this State and the order may be enforced and
satisfied in the same manner.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 615, a tribunal of this State
may not modify any aspect of a child-support order that may not be modified
under the law of the issuing state, including the duration of the obligation
of support. If two or more tribunals have issued child-support orders for the
same obligor and same child, the order that controls and must be so recognized
under Section 207 establishes the aspects of the support order which are
nonmodifiable.
(d) In a proceeding to modify a child-support order, the law of the state
that is determined to have issued the initial controlling order governs the
duration of the obligation of support. The obligor's fulfillment of the duty
of support established by that order precludes imposition of a further
obligation of support by a tribunal of this State.
(e) On issuance of an order by a tribunal of this State modifying a
child-support order issued in another state, the tribunal of this State
becomes the tribunal having continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.

(750 ILCS 22/612)
Sec. 612.
Recognition of order modified in another state.
If a
child-support order issued by a tribunal of this State is modified by
a tribunal of another state which assumed jurisdiction pursuant to the
Uniform Interstate Family Support Act, a tribunal of this State:
(1) may enforce its order that was modified only as
| | to arrears and interest accruing before the modification;
|
|
(2) provide appropriate relief for violations of its
| | order which occurred before the effective date of the modification; and
|
|
(3) recognize the modifying order of the other state,
| | upon registration, for the purpose of enforcement.
|
|

(750 ILCS 22/613)
Sec. 613.
Jurisdiction to modify child-support order
of another state when individual parties reside in this
State.
(a) If all of the parties who are individuals reside in this State and
the child does not reside in the issuing state, a tribunal of this State has
jurisdiction to enforce and to modify the issuing state's child-support order
in a proceeding to register that order.
(b) A tribunal of this State exercising jurisdiction under this Section
shall apply the provisions of Articles 1 and 2, this Article, and the
procedural and substantive law of this State to the proceeding for enforcement
or modification. Articles 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8 do not apply.
(Source: P.A. 90-240, eff. 7-28-97.)

(750 ILCS 22/614)
Sec. 614.
Notice to issuing tribunal of modification.
Within 30 days after issuance of a modified
child-support order,
the party obtaining the modification shall file a certified copy of the order
with the issuing tribunal that had
continuing, exclusive jurisdiction over the earlier order, and in each tribunal
in which the party knows the
earlier order has
been registered. A party who obtains the order and fails to file a
certified copy is subject to appropriate sanctions by a tribunal in which the
issue of failure to file arises. The failure to file does not affect the
validity or enforceability of the modified order of the new tribunal having
continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.

(750 ILCS 22/615)
Sec. 615.
Jurisdiction to modify child-support order of foreign country or
political subdivision.
(a) If a foreign country or political subdivision that otherwise meets the
requirements for inclusion under this Act as set forth in subpart (B) of the
definition of "State" contained in Section 102 will not
or may not modify its order pursuant to its laws, a tribunal of this State may
assume jurisdiction to modify the child-support order and bind all individuals
subject to the personal jurisdiction of the tribunal whether or not the consent
to modification of a child-support order otherwise required of the individual
pursuant to Section 611 has been given or whether the individual seeking
modification is a resident of this State or of the foreign country or political
subdivision.
(b) An order issued pursuant to this Section is the controlling order.
(Source: P.A. 93-479, eff. 1-1-04, operative 7-1-04.)
