INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
FORM 12.905(a),
SUPPLEMENTAL PETITION TO MODIFY PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY,
VISITATION OR PARENTING PLAN/ TIME–SHARING SCHEDULE AND
OTHER RELIEF (11/15)
When should this form be used?
This form should be used when you are asking the court to change the current parental responsibility,
visitation, and/or Parenting Plan/time-sharing schedule. A determination of parental responsibility, a
Parenting Plan and a time-sharing schedule may not be modified without a showing of a substantial,
material, and unanticipated change in circumstances and a determination that the modification is in the
best interests of the child(ren).
This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file this form in the county where the original order or
judgment was entered. If the order or judgment was entered in another state, or if the child(ren) live(s)
in another state, you should speak with an attorney about where to file this form. You should file the
original with the clerk of the circuit court and keep a copy for yourrecords.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING
The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.
What should I do next?
For your case to proceed, you must properly notify the other party in your case of the supplemental
petition. If you know where he or she lives, you should use personal service. If you absolutely do not
know where he or she lives, you may use constructive service. You may also be able to use constructive
service if the other party resides in another state or country. However, if constructive service is used,
other than granting a dissolution of marriage, the court may only grant limited relief. For more
information on constructive service, see Notice of Action for Family Cases with Minor Child(ren),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a),(2) and Affidavit of Diligent Search and
Inquiry, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(b). If the other party is in the military service
of the United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example, Memorandum for
Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(a). In sum, the
law regarding constructive service and service on an individual in the military service is very complex
and you may wish to consult an attorney regarding these issues.
If personal service is used, the other party has 20 days to answer after being served with your
supplemental petition. Your case will then generally proceed in one of the following three ways:
