What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Hawaii
I've been married to my husband for nearly 3 years, living together for 5. I'm in the process of getting a divorce, papers just got picked up yesterday. My husband told me previously that he was planning on supporting me after the divorce, but for some reason had the check-box titled, "My spouse is NOT entitled to spousal support," checked.
I am unemployed, 22 years old and en-route to transferring back to the mainland from Hawaii. He is a Lieutenant (O3-rank) in the Navy, serving 17 years. I don't have my own checking account nor do I have any savings.
What am I legally entitled to for separation support, and 'maintenance' alimony? And for how long?
