Indiana currently does not have any laws that support any kind of spousal support. During a divorce the amount of the marital assets owed to each party is decided by the Judge after hearing from both sides during the hearing. Property or assets that are in only one party's name are automatically awarded to that party, unless exceptionally circumstances exist to warrant it going to the other party, such a vehicle being awarded to the custodial guardian of the children instead of the documented owner.
yes
Former spouses have no right to their former spouse's pension. Claiming such would be fraud.Added: If you are referring to a Canadian GOVERNMENT pension, you may wish to contact the agency for which he worked.It may not be the same - but in the US, if an ex-wife qualifies she can receive a percentage of her ex-husbands pension equal to the numbers of years they were married while he worked for the government. You should REALLY check this possibility with an attorney skilled in that area of law practice.

A divorce does not effect child support. Also, usually child support stops when the child turns 18.
No. This is one of the reason that the state requires a one year separation before the dissolution of marriage filing. The state will usually require the couple to receive marital counseling and a copy of such to accompany the filing.

U.S. military members are entitled to a pension when they retire. If a military member gets divorced long before he reaches retirement age, the divorce court must consider the pension he is likely to get years later and how to divide it. Most states consider military pensions to be assets subject to division just like other marital property.Uniformed Services Former Spouses Protection ActThe Uniformed Services Former Spouses Protection Act, or USFSPA, is the law governing the division of military pensions following a divorce. This law gives states the power to divide military pensions between spouses in the event of divorce. Only a divorce court in the state the spouses reside in may have the power to make this type of decision, unless the spouses consent to the division. For example, if a service member lives in New York but is stationed in Colorado, he has to give consent for a Colorado divorce court to divide his military pension. Otherwise, this part of the divorce would have to be handled through a New York court. However, consent doesn't have to be explicit or in writing. If the service member participates in divorce proceedings in Colorado, the court will often presume consent to handling the division of pension in that state.10-year RuleThe USFSPA covers all military spouses, regardless of the length of the marriage. The marriage doesn't have to last for 10 years for divorce courts to divide the pension plan. However, if the marriage lasted 10 years or more, and one or both spouses served in the military for at least 10 years of the marriage, the U.S. Defense Financing and Accounting Service pays the ex-spouse her portion of the pension. Otherwise, the spouse who receives the pension must pay his former spouse her share when ordered to do so by the court.Timetable of PaymentsThe divorce court can determine when a former spouse is entitled to pension payments. In some cases, the court may order that the ex-spouse receive her expected payment immediately in one lump sum. In other cases, the court may require that the ex-spouse begin receiving payments upon her former spouse's retirement.
It depends on the legal terms of their divorce - if the divorce agreement specifically entitles the ex-spouse to the member's pension (percentage determined by the agreement), then yes, she is entitled. However, without such terms in the divorce or other separate legal agreement, the former spouse has no claim on the member's pension. For example, a good friend of mine was married to an abusive husband for many years, and part of her divorce settlement gives her half of his retirement - since he's an FBI agent, that'll keep her set pretty well. It's important to remember that marriage is a legally binding contract as well as a relationship, and when that contract is dissolved, so too are any legal claims the two partners have against each other unless they are a part of the divorce agreement.
