Assessing Spousal Support
Eligibility to spousal support is based on your specific marriage and financial circumstances. Once entitlement to spousal support is determined, the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines are used to suggest appropriate ranges of financial support. These guidelines are used by judges when they decide issues of spousal support.
When assessing the amount and duration of spousal support, various factors come into play. Namely:
-
Income of both parties
-
Property held
-
Debt of each party
-
Duration of the marriage
-
Child care responsibilities
-
Previously written agreements about spousal support
