You should also be advised that there is a Uniform Child Custody Act in the United States. Every state recognizes, and will enforce, custody orders from other states.

What happens when you are paying child support but being denied visitation and your child resides in a different state?
The non-custodial parent should file for visitation rights for the child in the county where custody was given.

If the custodial parent has too many repeated contempts filed against them, custody can be switched to the other parent.

Can a parent be in contempt of court for not allowing a non custodial parent visitation because she wont give her new address?
Yes. If the non custodial parent is denied visitation as outlined in the court order than the custodial parent is in contempt. Perhaps you should also establish a neutral exchange site and request the each parent notify the other parent within 48hrs any change in address or phone number. The custodial parent should know where the child will be when she is with the non-custodial parent. If something should happen to the non-custodial parent the custodial parent should know where to get the child. Wanting to keep that type of information secret shows a problem of non-cooperation and a parent who is not thinking of the best interests of the child.
What happens if custodial parent notifies non-custodial parent of relocation via certified letter and non-custodial parents neglects to file injunction to the relocation in a timely manner?
The custodial parent is legally free to relocate. This is because the noncustodial parent's argument as to why the relocation should not happen has not be presented to the court in time for the hearing and therefore the court will grant the custodial parent's application to relocate unopposed.
