What is spousal support?Spousal support, also known as alimony, is a financial payment from one spouse to another after separation or divorce. Its purpose is to help the lower-earning spouse maintain a similar standard of living to that enjoyed during the marriage. The amount and duration depend on various factors, including the length of the marriage and the needs and financial resources of each party.
-
What factors impact spousal support?Factors impacting spousal support include the length of the marriage, each spouse's income and earning potential, their financial needs, contributions to the marriage (such as childcare or homemaking), and any other relevant circumstances like age and health. Courts consider these elements to ensure a fair distribution of support to maintain the recipient's standard of living post-separation.
-
Is spousal support taxable?As of changes in 2019, spousal support payments are not taxable to the recipient nor tax-deductible for the payer in the United States. However, tax laws can vary. It is advisable to consult a tax professional to understand how spousal support affects your taxes in your specific jurisdiction.
-
How long does spousal support last?The duration of spousal support varies and depends on factors such as the length of the marriage and the financial independence of the lower-earning spouse. In some cases, it may be temporary and end once the recipient becomes self-sufficient. In others, it may be permanent, particularly in long-term marriages where one spouse may not be able to become fully financially independent.
