Well, assuming that the other parent lives in at least the same state (unless its one of those rare instances of someone living minutes away but living in another state) the judge looks at whether or not the move actually benefits the child as well as the parent, and whether those benefits plus remaining with the parent with primary custody, are greater than the benefits of remaining in the community with the other parent.

so in my own personal life ..
the kids and i had lived down south for awhile before movin back up here .. their dad an i did live in different states, but it was one of those rare circumstances where we were only 45 mins apart ..
anyway, their dad hasnt seen them now for over a year, even though he recently moved up to nh and is now only about 20 mins away ..
my thoughts have been to move back down south in the upcoming year or so because since being back i have realized that there is just no way i am going to be able to afford the cost of living up here as opposed to being down south, where i was, it was so much cheaper ..
would they be able to not 'allow' me to go seeing how i could provide my children with alot more down there than up here / i understand they want the kids to have both parents and where he hasnt seen them in so long moving them further would mean it would probably be that much harder .. but if it would benefit my children would there be much of an arguement against it /

The fact that he hasn't bothered to see them in a year will weigh heavily in your favor.

thanks for the response ..

now, its my understanding, from readin some other threads on here, that this is not something i want to go in talking about before everything is in place right ..
im better off waiting til everything is settled and then approach the idea of movin out of state / or ..would it be better having my intentions known from the start so that something is stated in the support/vistation orders from the beginning /

yeah, stupid shift key again .. time for a new keyboard i think ..lol

Well, you have to be sure that you are really going to move. However, its dangerous to accept a job in advance because the case may take longer than you think.

right .. i figured it wasnt a good idea to say anything til i had everything figured out and put into a plan .. but how do i leave it so that the possibility is open .. will something like that even come up when custody/visitation is decided ...

This is taken directly from the New Hampshire parenting plan you will be required to file with the New Hampshire court regarding relocation. As you can see, if you chooose number one, you will be required to return back to court if you move the children farther from the parent or out of thier current school system. As you can see it could be possible to discuss a possible move away now.

F. Relocation of a Residence of a Child: (Choose one) 1. The relocation of a child’s residence in which s/he lives at least 150 days per year is governed by RSA 461-A:12. In general, either parent may move the child’s residence if it results in the parents living closer and it if will not affect the child’s school enrollment. Prior to relocating the child’s residence farther from the other parent or in such a way that school enrollment will be impacted, the parent shall provide reasonable notice to the other parent. For purposes of this section, 60 days notice shall be presumed to be reasonable unless other factors are found to be present. At the request of either parent, the court shall hold a hearing on the relocation issue.

2. This parenting plan shall expressly govern the relocation issue as follows: (Choose one) (a) In addition to the provisions of RSA 461-A:12, this plan shall include the following relocation details: (b) Instead of RSA 461-A:12, this plan shall include the following relocation details:
