2A:4-30.115 Modification of order by another state recognized.
51. A tribunal of this State shall recognize a modification of its earlier child support order by a tribunal of another state which assumed jurisdiction pursuant to this act or law substantially similar to this act and, upon request, except as otherwise provided in this act, shall:
a. enforce the order that was modified only as to amounts accruing before the modification;
b. enforce only nonmodifiable aspects of that order;
c. provide other appropriate relief only for violations of that order which occurred before the effective date of the modification; and
d. recognize the modifying order of the other state, upon registration, for the purpose of enforcement.
L.1998,c.2,s.51.
2A:4-30.116 Jurisdiction to enforce, modify issuing state's order; law applicable.
52. a. If all of the individual parties reside in this State and the child does not reside in the issuing state, a tribunal of this State has jurisdiction to enforce and to modify the issuing state's child support order in a proceeding to register that order.
b. A tribunal of this State exercising jurisdiction as provided in this section shall apply the provisions of sections 1 through 12 of this act and this section to the enforcement or modification proceeding. Sections 13 through 39 and sections 54 through 56 of this act do not apply and the tribunal shall apply the procedural and substantive law of this State.

2A:4-30.117 Issuance, filing of modified child support order.
53. Within 30 days after issuance of a modified child support order, the party obtaining the modification shall file a certified copy of the obligation with the issuing tribunal which had continuing, exclusive jurisdiction over the earlier order, and in each tribunal in which the party knows the earlier order has been registered. A party who obtains the order and fails to file a certified copy, is subject to appropriate sanctions by a tribunal in which the issue of failure to file arises. Failure does not affect the validity or enforceability of the modified order of the new tribunal of having continuing, exclusive jurisdiction.
