Moving your child to a different state

[ccoutre]

I live in the state of Illinois and am thinking about moving back to Florida. I originally divorced in Florida and was granted permission to move to Illinois with my son. (I was granted primary care provider). My ex husband has since moved from Florida back to Wisconsin. It has been over 3 years since we moved back and he has visited him twice in that time. He has not seen his son for over 2 years to date and has only called once.
My question is: Will I have to inform him or get permission should I decide to move back to Florida.

Do you have joint legal or sole legal custody?

Yes.

In the state of Florida, the term is primary care provider which is primary care with agreed visitation between both parties. No set visitation was documented.

You give the Father notice of the move..Well enough notice..Say 30-45 days in advance. Let him know the date of the move, where the move will be, and what you have planned for visitation for him. Let him know that his thoughts are welcomed as far as what he would like to do with the visitation.

Then it is up to him to file a motion to stop the move.
