However, the average alimony most spouses can receive in Florida will not exceed 40% of the gross income of the spouse paying the alimony. On the other hand, if the marriage has lasted less than seven years, then it will not exceed 20% of the gross income of the spouse paying.
What qualifies a recipient spouse for alimony in Florida are several factors, among them: The standard of living established during the marriage. The length of the marriage. Both spouse's financial resources, including the non-marital, marital property, assets, and liabilities.
40% of the high earner's net monthly income minus 50% of the low earner's net monthly income. For instance, if Spouse A earns $5,000 per month and Spouse B earns $2,500 per month, temporary spousal support might be calculated as follows: 40% of $5,000 = $2,000. 50% of $2,500 = $1,250.

(1)(a) In a proceeding for dissolution of marriage, the court may grant alimony to either party in the form or forms of temporary, bridge-the-gap, rehabilitative, or durational alimony, as is equitable. In an award of alimony, the court may order periodic or lump sum payments.
Long-term Marriage: A long-term marriage is a marriage that lasts 20 years or more. In long-term marriages, the length of the alimony award may not exceed 75% of the length of the marriage. For example, if the parties are married for 28 years, the length of the alimony award cannot exceed 21 years.
There is a rebuttable presumption for an award of permanent alimony in a long-term marriage, which is 17 years or longer. There is no presumption for or against permanent alimony in a moderate-term marriage, which is a marriage greater than 7 years but less than 17 years.
