Fill Out Your Wisconsin Fa 604 Template
The Wisconsin FA 604 form serves as a crucial tool for individuals seeking to modify existing court orders related to custody, physical placement, and financial support, including child support and maintenance. This form is applicable in cases of marriage or paternity and requires specific information about the original case, such as the county where it was filed and the case number. Petitioners must provide their names, addresses, and contact details, as well as those of the respondent. The form allows users to indicate any changes in circumstances that necessitate a modification, such as changes in income, health insurance availability, or living arrangements. Additionally, it covers various aspects of financial obligations, including child support calculations based on gross income and the number of children involved. The FA 604 also includes sections for detailing agreements between parties regarding support amounts and payment schedules. By completing this form, parties can request that the court approve their stipulations without the need for a hearing, streamlining the process of adjusting legal obligations in response to changing family dynamics.
