The term "primary joint custody" is contradictory. Primary (or sole) custody means one parent has full rights of decision as to the care of the child, including education, medical treatment, etc. Joint custody means parents share equal rights in major decisions such as moving the child to another state or country. One parent cannot legally take such action without the other's consent or without permission of the court.

∙ 11y agoThat depends on the law where you currently live, the original custody order including visitation provisions, where you intend to go, and whether or not such a move would present a hardship in terms of visitation to the other parent. Some areas require that you file an intent to relocate with the court and have permission granted beforehand, some areas require the other parent's consent, some areas require both and some areas only require that the original custody/visitation order be modified.
Consult an attorney in your area for an informed opinion based on the circumstances of your case.

What is the difference between having full cusody and having primary custody?
Full custody is defined as one parent of a child having sole control over a minor child with the other having no custodial rights. Primary custody means that both parents share custody (also known as joint custody) but the primary custodian is the parent that the child spends most fo their time with/lives with on a regular basis. In other words, the parent that is not the primary custodian is the one that has the visitation rights.
If you have joint custody can your teenager live with either parent?
The guidelines are basically the same in every state but obviously there are a few minor differences. Joint custody consists of Primary Custody & Secondary Custody. The parent with primary custody is who the child lives with & the other parent has secondary custody. Depending on the age of the child & the state in which they reside, the court may let them determine where they choose to live. Or if both parents agree on the child's decision then the child can live with either parent.
What is primary custody?
Primary custody is generally defined as belonging to the parent with whom the child or children reside with the majority of the time. It does not mean that it cannot be a joint custody arrangement as well.
