To add to my above post, Scenario: SPC fuzzy gets divorced from his wife while stationed at Bragg. They don't take his BAH away. He PCS's to Campbell, tells us that he is still married, stays here for a couple years and deploys.
Divorce will not affect filing chapter 7. If the divorce is final, you will have to file separate chapter 7s. If the divorce is not final, or has not happened, you can file a joint chapter 7.
Yes. The provisions for divorce are in Deuteronomy chapter 24 and expounded upon in the Mishnah and the Talmud.
This does mean expenses are not covered by insurance. If this is what the divorce decree says, then you are responsible for these bills.
That is dependent on the rules and regulation on service by the court of jurisdiction.
No she will no longer be covered
Yes.
Finance is a barrier to a divorce for several reasons: A. Depending on several factors, the spouses must now decide on how to divide the wealth that accumulated during the course of the marriage; and B. And based on any child custody disputes, the issue of child support can be contentious.
Yes.
Avoid filing if you can. There is no easy way out. The option of filing will still be there after the divorce if that's best for you.

Whether you can eliminate a debt that resulted from a divorce decree will depend on the type of debt. If you owe child support or alimony from a divorce then you will not be able to eliminate the debt in bankruptcy. If the divorce assigned some debt to you as part of the divorce and it was not assigned as child support or alimony then you may be able to eliminate the debt in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to eliminate debt assigned to you that is in the nature of a property settlement and not child support or alimony.
Every case is different, but if the two of you file a joint petition for bankruptcy before the divorce, you will both avoid problems. Consult a lawyer who knows both divorce and bankruptcy law.
