Although the correct answer to your question may vary depending upon the jurisdiction, in most cases a reservation of spousal support means that whichever spouse has the reservation can come back to court and ask for more spousal support at a future date.

In other words, the door is still open to allow a spouse to come back to court and get more spousal support for a longer period of time.

Often courts require a change of circumstances from that which existed at the time of the divorce, for a spouse to come back to court and ask for more, however this is not always the case.
