  Forms for Motion to Modify Child Custody (and Support) or Motion to Modify Child Support are provided from the Representing Yourself section. You are required to complete the Litigant Awareness Program if you plan to use these forms and represent yourself in court.

Court clerks cannot provide assistance in completing these forms. If you need assistance completing these forms, learn about how to find and hire attorney. In addition, The Missouri Bar offers a free law-related brochure about child support.

How to use the forms:

  1. You must save each form before you begin entering information in the form fields. Right click the link for a form and save it to your computer before you begin entering information in the form fields. If you are downloading the form from a public computer, be sure to save the form to a personal device, such as a thumb drive. 
  2. For fillable PDF documents, you must use Acrobat Reader DC (or Adobe Acrobat DC) to ensure the forms work as intended. If you do not have Acrobat Reader DC, a free edition can be downloaded from the Adobe website. 
  3. If you have technical difficulties completing the forms online, you may print all of the blank forms and fill them out by hand to file with the court. Please check with your local court for further instructions. 
  4. You are responsible for the completeness and accuracy of any information submitted on the forms. Please double-check the information you enter! 
  5. Use the Tab key to move from field to field within a form. Hover the cursor over a fillable field to view help text associated with a field. Check boxes can be selected by pressing the space bar or clicking the box. To remove a check mark, press the space bar or click the check box again. Questions requiring only one check box be selected cannot be unselected.  
Federal Income Withholding for Support: The Federal Income Withholding for Support form is a multipurpose form used to:
  • Initiate new wage withholdings;
  • Revise existing withholdings; and
  • Terminate existing wage withholdings.
The Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement developed the Federal Income Withholding for Support form in partnership with a workgroup of State and Tribal child support agencies, courts/tribunals, the American Payroll Association, private and public sector employers, and private collection agencies. The Federal Income Withholding for Support form is in a uniform format prescribed by the Secretary of Health and Human Services as required by the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (P.L. 104-193) and 452.350 (16), RSMo for all entities ordering income withholding for child support for both IV-D and non IV-D cases.

Form 14 Child Support Amount Calculation Worksheet: The Missouri Child Support Guidelines Worksheet (Form 14) estimates the child support obligation that a court may order a parent to pay toward supporting the child(ren) on a monthly basis. Under Missouri law, there is a rebuttable presumption that the amount of child support, which would result from the use of these guidelines is the correct amount of support to be awarded; however, a court may choose to deviate from the guidelines under certain circumstances. If you have questions regarding the Missouri Child Support Guidelines, you may wish to contact an attorney.
