You must apply for court permission.
Retain counsel.
Re: Custody
Florida law requires that you send your ex a special form that describes details of your desired move and how it will impact your daughter and your ex. Your ex then has 30 days to object. If he does not object, you can move. If your ex sends you a notice within 30 days that he is objecting, you'll have to file a lawsuit seeking permission from a judge for the move.
Permission is rarely granted, but the fact that your ex is late on his child support is one of the factors the judge may weigh in your favor.
