Be prepared to explain your reasons for relocating in court, and justify those reasons based on your child’s best interest.  This will include, amongst other considerations, demonstrating the following: The move is made in good faith and the move supports your child’s health, well-being and support. That you have considered reasonable and workable arrangements to preserve the relationship between your child and co-parent.  This will be impacted by the nature and strength of your child’s relationship with the co-parent together with the history of your child’s care. That the relocation is in your child’s best interest.  Amongst other factors, key considerations will include your child’s need for stability and in some circumstances, your child’s views (unless it is unreasonable to consider them).
