There's no such thing as filing a modification agreement by itself.

If two parties do agree on modification, and the particular issue is modifiable (that takes a review of the original papers), then various documents must be filed (one of many would be an agreement) depending on what is being changed. A judge must approve them either by hearing or motion depending on the court.
