You can file a Petition to Modify Child Support, and then you would be entitled to discovery -- meaning you can request copies of his pay stubs, W-2s, tax returns, etc.? It is a complicated process, so I would recommend that you seek the assistance of an attorney. However, many of the counties have form documents online for people to represent themselves.
