petition to modify means you are asking the court to change a previous order, this way you can increase or lower child support, increase or lower visitation and contact, change the hours of visitation, move from state to state, or change anything previousy ordered by the court. If you need something that the court never ordered, something new, you file an original petition: to establish child support, to establish parental rights, to establish visitation and contact, to in essence, give you something you didnt have before.

Reason for modification depends. Does the order ask to extend another year?

A petition to modify is not an order to modify. A petition to modify is a request that the court enter an order modifying its prior order(s).

First a petition will need to be filed to have the custodial order changed. If the court allows that action it is usually possible to have the child support order modified at the same time. The change of custody petition will need to be filed in the state court where the present custodial parent resides.
