Reducing the payment of alimony is a complex procedure that includes collecting a wide variety of documents, drawing up a statement of claim and proving your right in court. Practice shows that such processes are delayed or even closed, so you must first use the services of an experienced lawyer or attorney.
Instructions
Step 1
Explore the reasons that allow you to reduce the amount of child support paid for minor children. To do this, you must refer to Art. 119 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, which states that the amount can be reduced if the parent has received the status of a disabled person of group 1 or 2. Also, the amount of payments will be adjusted if the child has reached the age of 16 and has his own sources of income. Special attention should also be paid to children who are fully supported by the state.
Step 2
Consult with an experienced lawyer about the possibility of reducing the amount of alimony. Gather a package of documents that will prove the legality of your actions. If it is not possible to obtain information about the child's income, then you can interview neighbors or acquaintances who will confirm this fact.
Step 3
Make a notarized copy of the marriage and divorce certificate, the child's birth certificate, receive a certificate of income in the form of 2-NDFL and an extract from the house book, as well as a copy of the financial and personal account.
Step 4
Draw up a statement of claim, in which you indicate your requirements for reducing the amount of alimony and the basis for the recalculation. Submit a claim to the court at the location of the claimant. Wait for the decision from the magistrate to accept the documents for production and receive an appointment for a preliminary court hearing. Pay the state fee.
Step 5
Hire an experienced family lawyer to help you find the right answers to the judge's questions about the reasons for the child support reduction. Otherwise, you may fall into a legal trap and your claim will be denied. The lawyer will help to prove the change in the financial and family situation, which will reduce the alimony without prejudice to the legitimate interests of the minor child.
