Change in child support after retirement

My ex husband is 20years older than me and our daughter is 7 years old. He is able to retire in approximately 2 years. I am the residential parent and he pays me support for our daughter. How will the support be calculated and change when he retires? He will most likely pull from his 401K and his pension for retirement income. I work full time.

Just like if he changed jobs and his income changed drastically, he can file for a modification of support based on his new financial situation. Does your current support plan indicate what will happen upon his retirement? If not, it stays the same until either of you files for a modification.
