Since our divorce, I inquired and now receive a percentage of my exhusbands USAF retirement. Do I still qualify if I remarry? Please quote regulations/law if you can. This is important as I dont want money I wont be entitled to.

You should contact the nearest base legal office. They can tell you without charging you. But unfortunately the answer is NO. Once you remarry, you cannot continue to receive your husband's benefots. You will surrender his pay. I wish I could find the infomation that my husband sent me from basic in 2004. But your base legal office will tell you the same thing.

i do no longer understand in the event that they supply you a decision because you have already got 20 years in. have you ever checked into it? and since the different guy pronounced, which one gets you a much bigger retirement verify from the USAF besides as from the VA? What you get from the VA would be tax-exempt. yet despite you do, ensure which you get a minimum of 30% disabled! That way, would desire to you prefer to artwork for the VA, DoD, DOE, and so on. quicker or later in time, you get an further 10 factors selection torwards the activity of your selection.

If you remarry you won't get to steal his retirement... so go get married and get on with your new life and be happy instead of holding the chains of misery. Otherwise try fixing your relationship if you can't MOVE ON!

first of all, how long were you actually married including time separated till divorce was final. and how much of that time was he in the military. if you go online and look up former spouses of military members and retirement in the same search you'll find your answer. but the key to all this is 10 years of marriage.

remarrying voids all of the benefits (px, commissary, medical etc). go to your local legal assistance attorney at the jag office and they will be able to help you out. if you don't want to look at that, then you can also google the former spouses protection act. it lays out everything that you are entitled to, an the penalties for remarrying etc.

NO !! On remarriage, you cede right to his retirement... thank God.
I don't mean to be bitter, but my ex (to whom I was married for 32 months... she had alot of BF during the first Gulf War) ACTUALLY tracked me down on retirement... and tried to GET a part of my retirement !! Amusingly, she'd been married 3 times since our divorce.

No, you get remarried you lose the money and the medical benefits. IMHO, you don't deserve them anyway if you are divorced.

you should check with your local VA ooffice, but i understand that if you were married to him for 10 or more years, it doesn't matter if you remarry.

This is the reason that men (including me) are afraid to commit.

Whatever is in your decree...
