Who has a new spouse? The person paying alimony or the one receiving it? If it's the one paying it, then he/she is still required to pay it even if he/she remarries. If it's the one receiving it...generally, alimony payment terminates if the recipient remarry.

Alimony payments are deductible as an above-the-line deduction on your Federal income taxes. They are reported on Line 31a of Form 1040 for 2010. Note that Line 31a also requires you to report the Social Security Number of the person you paid alimony to, because it will be considered taxable income for them. It's important to point out that child support payments are NOT deductible.
