How do I modify my divorce decree from New Jersey now that I live in Virginia

More details to this question:
My divorce decree allows for alimony and life insurance modifications. I was divorced in 1994 in Salem County New Jersey and I now live in Bedford County Virginia. My ex wife still lives in New Jersey. Do I have to go back to New Jersey to file a motion or can I do it in Virginia?

If you want relief form the NEw Jersey Courts you will have to apply to the New Jersey Court. It will be easiest to do that, because your ex-wife still lives here and the New Jersey Court has jurisdiction over her. There are documents you can look at online at the New Jersey Judiciary Website, and you might be able to do this on your own.
