Dear Ms. Smith,
This letter is regarding my child support case (#123456789876), which was processed by your office on Sep. 27, 2020.
The initial court order set my monthly payment at $1,500 in support of my 12-year-old daughter Kristen and her mother Jane. I sent my payments promptly without skipping a single month since October of 2020. However, due to me getting laid off from my job last week, I am asking your office to terminate my child support payments until I am able to secure another source of steady income. While my severance pay and unemployment benefits will be enough to cover my living expenses for the time being, it will not be enough to continue covering my child support for Kristen.
I’ve attached supporting documents to this letter, including my employment termination letter from my employer and a copy of my financial statements. Please understand that losing my job was beyond my control, as it was part of a company-wide budget cut that eliminated several dozen positions including my own. As a committed father, I plan to quickly secure another job so that I can continue providing support for my beloved daughter Kristen.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Please let me know if you need anything else from me to support this request.
Sincerely,
Rob Dylan
