The only way a wife can pay alimony is if she is rich, like those millionaire, or politics, but normally she don't.
You are entitled to alimony if the judge says you are entitled to alimony. It is the judge's decision, not someones opinion writing on a computer terminal. It depends on your state's law. It also depends on whether or not you have a good lawyer.
In a No Fault Divorce state it issue is not applicable.
No, it is not attachable.
Maybe. It depends on your state.
A state court order must say military retirement pay is part of the alimony can a former spouse receive a portion. No Federal law says a former spouse is entitled to the pay as part of alimony.
You have the right to a divorce. But with the advent of no fault divorce, you would have had that right anyway. You may be able to get favorable consideration in custody and in alimony, depending on how the state's laws are written, but generally, it doesn't matter who cheated if the marriage will end in divorce.
It may depend on where you live as the laws vary from state to state. For example, in Florida it is assumed that the date upon which the petition is filed is the date to work with to divide funds and other assets but if the court finds it more equitable to apply the date he left, they will do that. HOWEVER, you may be entitled to alimony, depending on your circumstances and are entitled to child support if you have minor children. To that extent, you are entitled to part of your husband's current and future income. Note you do not have to be divorced, at least in Florida, to get child support.
It would be best to go with counsel, (in my opinion) But you could sign a agreed order. depends on the state.
You need to review his divorce agreement and check the laws in your state.
* She is entitled to have of his retirement, and depending if children are involved she may be entitled to more. Please go to this link (by State): http://www.divorcesource.com/research/edj/cases/military.shtml
What you receive depends on the state in which you live. You could be entitled to everything or you could be entitled to half of all marriage assets.
Not being an attorney, this answer will be from a layman's view, until improved by someone more knowledgable. Generally, the law[s] of the state where you live determine the answer to this question. However, I think there is a difference [at least in some states] between alimony, and child support. Child support IS for children, but alimony is support for a spouse, and under some state laws can be required to be paid by either spouse, depending on the couple's financial circumstances.
