What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Iowa
I am married to an u.s. army soldier. We have been married for nine years. He wants a divorce and has sent me a legal separation document to complete and return to him. I have two questions, for now.
Is a legal separation required in Iowa to receive a divorce?
We use our permanent address as Des Moines Iowa (property taxes, taxes, voting, vehicle registration) but stationed in Fort Belvoir, VA (his driver's license is VA because of the urgency of having to renew before he went to Iraq last year, typically he carries an IA license). I have moved out of the resident with him and am living back in Iowa.
We have been married for nine years (married in Iowa) am I entitled to alimony?
I separated from my job to relocate for the army move, sold all my stock and cashed in all my retirement for our survival.
