It is much simpler than it sounds.

You will hire an attorney where you live, he will file for a modification and at the same time file papers that establish WA is the correct venue and asking WA to "domesticate" the decree from IL. Which is a fancy way of saying "recognize this as the existing order even though it wasn't written and filed here." You don't actually file anything in IL.

Forgiveness is...letting go of the hope that the past can be changed.
