Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

I am a remarried woman who has an 8 year old daughter from my the previous marriage. My current husband is in the Army and we are moving to Alaska from Iowa and I, obviously, want my daughter to come with us. I have primary custody of her and she only sees her dad every other weekend. In our divorce decree it says that I am allowed to move no mare than 150 miles from him. Anything beyond that has to be agreed upon. He is not agreeing to this move to Alaska. What do I need to do to be able to legally take her to Alaska?

You're going to have to go to court and establish why it is that you now want to change the existing custody and support order. That's what you need to do to find out whether you can do what you want to do.
