![]() Alimony is support awarded to a dependent spouse. When a married couple separates, a claim of alimony must be instituted before the divorce is finalized or it is lost. In order to file for alimony, there must be a dependent spouse and a supporting spouse. This means that one spouse, the supporting spouse, must provide economic support to the other spouse, the dependent spouse. The dependent spouse must be able to prove that he or she is truly dependent on the economic support of the supporting spouse. There can be a difference in income without such a relationship existing. If one spouse makes $55K per year, for example, and the other spouse makes $50K per year, a supporting / dependent relationship probably would not exist. If, on the other hand, one spouse makes $150K per year and the other spouse makes $35K per year, a supporting / dependent relationship would probably be found to exist. Even if a supporting / dependent relationship exists, infidelity during marriage may effect alimony. If, for example, the dependent spouse cheats on the supporting spouse during their marriage, she is barred from alimony. If the supporting spouse, however, cheats on the dependent spouse during their marriage, alimony should be automatically be granted.

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me. Then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again.
