FAQ
Two of the biggest alimony factors in Virginia when awarding spousal support are the financial need of the party asking for support and the ability of the person paying to supplement the income of the requesting spouse to meet their needs.
The formula stated in § 16.1-278. is: (a) 30% of the gross income of the payor less 50% of the gross income of the payee in cases with no minor children and (b) 28% of the gross income of the payor less 58% of the gross income of the payee in cases where the parties have minor children in common.
Income Strongly Influences Alimony Amounts For couples without children, the formula involves subtracting 50% of the gross income of the receiving spouse from 27% of the gross income of the paying spouse.
However, adultery is not necessarily a complete bar to the adulterous spouse receiving spousal support in Virginia. Rather, the court may still award the adulterous spouse support in some cases, based on (1) the relative finances of the parties and (2) the relative degrees of “fault” of the parties.
What is a wife entitled to in a divorce in Virginia? Neither party in the marriage is automatically entitled to anything until it is determined by the court based on their unique situation. Division of property is also determined by the court based on each spouse's financial situation and assets.
Virginia is an equitable distribution state, not a community property or 50/50 state. The split in a Virginia divorce does not have to be 50/50. Instead, the court will decide what is a fair division of property.
In the eyes of Virginia property is classified as either separate property or marital property. And even if the house is titled in your name only, it would still be considered a marital asset. So therefore, you would not be able to kick out the other spouse, because she is a spouse and not a tenant.
