I have sole custody, dad lives 3k+ miles away, has for a couple years. I finally finished my degree and got a job offer in the next state over. My divorce papers state I have to give a reasonable time frame for notifying father of move. What the heck is a "reasonable time frame"? Dad has no intentions of moving here or near here and move isn't going to affect his time with kids.

Usually 30 days, but you can check your state statutes. I don't know if it really matters at this point, but you should cover your bases just in case.

If you know now, why not just inform him now? Then, you don't have to worry about it.

Just inform him. #1, dad should know where his kids are living/going to be living, always. #2, if he has visitation and exercises it, you don't know when he purchases airline tickets and he could have some departing from your current location on a date when you wont be living there.
Just inform him, shouldn't be a big deal. Sounds like your CO says you have to inform him, not that you have to seek his approval.

I didn't try googling it yet because anytime I look up laws online I get lost in the legal wordage, LOL.
He actually does know, what I should've made clear was that I am supposed to notify the court in my district and the father in a letter in a reasonable amount of time. So I was wondering when I needed to do the formal aspect of it. Am I allowed to call the courts to find out? I know my lawyer had called to see if paperwork had made it to the judge's desk.

You're making this harder than it should be. Your CO says 'within a reasonable amount of time'. Are you a reasonable person? Nevermind. You know now, so do it now. Done.

It's not, lol. But it IS a simple question and you are making it complicated dear. CO says to inform - so inform and be done with it.
