What can change

Four types of modifications.

Each has its own legal standard. divvi knows the threshold for each — and tells you whether your situation clears it before you file.

Child custody & parent-time
When it applies

Your child's needs changed. You or your ex relocated. A custody arrangement that worked then doesn't work now.

What changes

Petition to modify physical or legal custody, adjust parent-time schedule, change holiday rotations.

Legal threshold

Material change in circumstances — typically 12+ months since decree.

Child support
When it applies

A significant income change — job loss, promotion, new child, or 3+ years since the last order.

What changes

Recalculate using Utah's child support worksheet with current incomes. Either party can petition.

Legal threshold

Utah allows review every 3 years, or sooner with a 15%+ change in the calculated amount.

Alimony
When it applies

Your ex remarried. Your financial situation changed significantly. The original term has expired.

What changes

Petition to terminate, reduce, or extend alimony. Utah courts consider the original reason and current need.

Legal threshold

Alimony automatically terminates on remarriage. Other changes require court approval.

Parenting plan provisions
When it applies

Communication breakdown, school changes, extracurriculars, therapy needs, relocation request.

What changes

Modify communication protocols, right of first refusal, school decision-making, travel notice requirements.

Legal threshold

Must show the change serves the best interests of the child.

Frequently asked questions

When can I modify a Utah divorce decree?

You can ask the court to modify custody, parent-time, child support, or alimony when there's been a substantial and material change in circumstances since the decree was entered that wasn't anticipated at the time.

What can be modified after divorce?

The most common modifications are to child custody and parent-time, child support amounts, and alimony. Property division in the original decree generally cannot be reopened.

Do both spouses have to agree to a modification?

No. If you both agree, an uncontested modification is straightforward. If your ex disagrees, you can still file a contested modification and, if needed, use mediation to try to resolve it.

How much does a modification cost with divvi?

divvi handles Utah modifications for a flat fee that covers both with-children and without-children cases. You'll also pay any court filing fee that applies to your modification.
