    Moving on.

    First,it would be nice for our readers to know a bit about your separation agreement,amount of spousal support,child support,etc.Each year you would have supply each other with a finacial statement.A little more info and i am sure you will receive replies.

      This can be an easy process, and you could posibly pull it off without a lawyer. At the very least start the process yourself than have a lawyer finish it off for you. You can begin the process to get a "motion to vary" by simply going to the courts family division and getting the necessary paperwork. Once you begin the process you will have to submit a financial statement along with some proof of income such as pay stubs, T4s and /or income tax returns. When she responds, she will have to submit the same. the fact that she is working more than before, earning more than before, owns a home, that the children are no longer dependants...these may all constitute "material change of circumstances" and could be valid arguments to have the spousal support varied. Under the Family law act in Canada, both parties have an obligations to gain self sufficiency. If you can provide a little more details as to the facts on both sides we may be able to clear a few things up.

        Other than the post of c1opinse this thread is a mishmash of the English language. It's hard to offer any help.

            Thank-you for your kind words,I wish I could help with 2 sides of the story but I know not a whole lot about my ex,Just what i hear from our friends and kids,There is no communication between us,All i wanted was some advice thats all I wish I could open up more but it is so hard still,if I could get the SS suspended for awhile say 6 months would the courts feel that after that time my ex could become self sufficient on her own ?
            Thank-You again
            I want to be able to breath again with a new start also
