What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Arizona
My husband and I have been seperated for a year, not a legal seperation. I was the one who moved out of the community home and I am also the primary income earner and all health insurance is through my employer. I have told him that the house would be his as well. He is 62, I am 53. He took an early retirement, which will start in either April or May of this year. His full retirement age is 66, so he only had another 4 years to go before he could collect full benefits. He currently is working part-time and will not exceed the allowed amount for earned income. He wants spousal support so he can obtain his own insurance once the divorce is final. If he were to work full-time at his current job, he would be eligible for their insurance coverage. However, even though he is a healthy, young 62 year old, he does not want to work full-time and wants me to pay him spousal support so he can be retired part time. Does anyone have an opinion or idea on how the courts might respond to this?
