FAQ
What is a wife entitled to in a divorce in PA? The wife is not automatically entitled to anything that is not her direct property or assets in a divorce in PA. Alimony payments may be required based on the wife's situation and any division of property will also be determined based on other factors.
The law in Nevada says alimony ends when the spouse receiving alimony either passes away or remarries. You can modify spousal support if the paying party's income increases or decreases by 20% or more. This support modification is considered a change of circumstances.
A minority of men need alimony when a marriage ends, but their numbers are growing. In 2010, U.S. Census records showed that 3% of those receiving alimony were men. That percentage is undoubtedly on the rise.
The formula used in the state of Pennsylvania states that the receiving spouse must receive 40 percent of the difference between the spouses' net incomes on a monthly basis. If the couple has children, the formula is altered to 30 percent of the net income difference.
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.
Spousal support is requested by the lower income spouse before the divorce is initiated. This means you can request spousal support if you've left an abusive situation or if your spouse has moved out. However, your spousal support claim can be denied if you have provided grounds for divorce.
The determination of spousal support is made by taking the difference in the net incomes of the parties, and multiplying that figure by a certain percentage (40% in cases where there is no concurrent child support, and 30% where there is child support in place).
Nevada doesn't have a formula or an absolute formula to calculate how much alimony to order. The laws made by Nevada's legislature, simply states alimony should be “just and equitable.”
By law (in Nevada), alimony stops when the spouse receiving alimony either passes away or remarries. You can modify alimony if there is an increase or decrease of 20% of more in the paying party's income. This is considered a change of circumstances.
The courts rely mainly on monthly income to decide on spousal support. To calculate your monthly income the court will use your financial disclosure form. Your financial disclosure form (FDF) provides the court a general idea of your monthly income, your monthly deductions, and your monthly expenses.
