You may want to talk to a lawyer or someone from the Office of Child Support Enforcement for more information or if you have other questions. Instead, the court can set the amount of child support based on the needs of the children. However, any decision the court makes to reduce the amount of child support must be in the best interests of the childre&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Texas law requires you to prove a ‘material and substantial change in circumstances’ to modify child support. &lt;/ins&gt;However, don’t rely on verbal agreements—always get formal court approval for any payment changes.
