Because no attorney knows the particulars of your case beyond what you have written, I suggest contacting the Child Support Unit.
My daughter lives in Missouri and wants to move back to ND with her daughter. Nothing has been filed in Missouri at this point. She would like to move to ND and then file for custody and child support from here. The father of the child is not active in her life.

It is unclear whether you plan a return to North Dakota and which state jurisdiction would belong to. However, full custody is generally not an option absent extraordinary circumstances or the agreement of another party. You have no legal basis to demand that he shows up to appointments. When your...

The other party can seek a change in child support through the child support unit. Although the other party cannot unilaterally raise what you owe by simply telling you that you owe more, the state may.

This situation cannot be handled in North Dakota. You need to contact that organization that administers child support in Florida or contact a lawyer in Florida.
