FAQ
How a military pension will be divided after divorce is largely determined by state laws, but federal restrictions come into play. Typically, no more than 50% of the value of a military pension can be awarded to a former spouse of a retired service member.
BAH is nontaxable income which will be included in this formula to determine child or temporary spousal support. Note that, while not discussed here, BAH is not a divisible asset subject to community property laws in California.
These benefits, in addition to possibly 50 percent of the retired pension, include full commissary and exchange privileges and full medical benefits under the TRICARE system. These benefits remain for the life of the former spouse, or the Servicemember, or until the former spouse remarries.
You are receiving BAH as an entitlement based on your marital status. Your entitlement ceases at the moment the divorce is approved, unless an exception is made as approved by your appropriate level commander. Being a government entity, it unfortunately does not adjust entitlements based on choice.
Does BAH Count as Income? Yes, because BAH is non-taxable, VA lenders can "gross-up" this income to create what's essentially a pre-tax, or gross, figure for calculating your debt-to-income (DTI) ratio.

Since Texas is a community property state, all property that the service member and service member's spouse own at the time of divorce is considered jointly owned by both of them. The divorcing parties can agree on how to split this property fairly but if they don't agree the court will do it for them.
No. Under federal law, VA disability benefits are not marital property which courts can divide in a divorce. However, the VA disability payments are not invisible to the court, and do count as income when calculating child support or alimony.
There is no fixed rule or set duration that automatically makes one spouse eligible or ineligible for alimony payments. However, marriage length is a crucial factor judges consider when determining whether to award alimony and, if so, how much and for how long.
