    littleman,

    ok now do I need to withdraw from FRO for what has been ordered by the judge
    NO! absolutely NO! The Court Registrar will issue a new support deduction order by default and forward it to the FRO. You can get a copy of this SDO by visiting the court house and asking for same. Complete this package that FRO sends you immediately and forward to the FRO. This process takes time so be patient. In the interim, do not withdraw from the FRO for a previous order. Do not sign any document in regards to same from the other party. If you do, you will have a great difficultly enforcing your old previous child support order. Until a new order is in place the FRO will enforce the old order and will collect arrears for the new order.

    As far as the rest of the orders go, get a copy of the Judge's endorsement page from the continuing record. Normally the party that is successful draws up the order, but since you are self represented the other parties lawyer may draw up a draft at their leisure. This might take months. I don't think you want this laissez-faire attitude in regards to the new order.

    You could do this yourself by typing out the orders word from word from the hand written endorsement sheet located in the continuing record of the prevailing Judge on court Form 25 http://www.ontariocourtforms.on.ca/e...mily/index.jsp
    and serve along with a copy of the hand written Judges endorsement to the other party and their lawyer. They have ten (10)days to respond once served to the draft order. If no response after 10 days, go ahead and file the draft with the Registrar and the Registrar will subsequently forward the order to the Judge that made the order for signing or they may sign the order. Once the order is signed, return back to the court and obtain a copy of the signed order.

    EFFECTIVE DATE

    (18) An order is effective from the date on which it is made, unless it states otherwise. O. Reg. 114/99, r. 25 (18).

    Remember that there is really nothing final in family law. If a material change were to occur, either party could bring forth a motion to vary a current order in place. The onus is on the party seeking to vary an order to proof the material change of circumstance ie: ones income increases or decreases significantly, the child's best interest have changed such as a custodial parent relocating. If circumstances such as I have mentioned were to occur, this would construe to be a material change.
