Can a child support order in California be modified?

In California, a parent can ask for a change in child support if there is a change in their situation. These changes can be a large increase or decrease in the money either parent makes, changes in what the child needs, or changes in who takes care of the child. To change a child support order, a parent needs to file a child support modification request with the court and show proof of the changes.
