What happens if a spouse wants to move?
===What happens if a spouse wants to move?===
If a spouse wants to move, with or without a child, and the move <span class="noglossary">will</span> have a "significant impact" on the child’s relationship with someone with decision-making responsibility, parenting time or contact, the spouse must give 60 days' notice of the move to anyone else who has decision-making responsibility, parenting time or contact. The notice must in the form required by the rules of court and say where the guardian plans on moving to, when the guardian plans on moving, and how decision-making responsibility, parenting time and contact can be exercised after the move. See the discussion on relocation under the heading [[Changing_Family_Law_Orders_and_Agreements_Involving_Children#Relocating_with_or_without_a_child | "Relocating with or without a child"]], in the section on [[Changing_Family_Law_Orders_and_Agreements_Involving_Children#Relocating_with_or_without_a_child | Changing Family Law Orders and Agreements Involving Children]] in the [[Children in Family Law Mattersand Parenting after Separation]] chapter.
If a person receiving this notice objects to the proposed move, they have 30 days to file an objection to the move. The objection must in the form required by the rules of court and say why the person objects and they must respond to the spouse's proposal on how decision-making responsibility, parenting time and contact can be exercised after the move. If no one objects after receiving the notice, then the spouse will usually be able to move.
