Er spouse military retirement pay taxes Form 2008-2023

If her ex husband has already paid tax in full on the money she is receiving then she should not have to pay tax on it' that would be double taxationu00a0u00a0u00a0 BUT if he treats the money he gives her as a deduction from his gross earnings then she is receiving untaxed income and she will have to pay tax on it. If any tax is to be paid it will be payable in the country she is now in permanent residence. So if she spends part of the year inthe US and part in GB then theu00a0 she must decide which is her pemanent residence and this will normally be the one she spends most time in and/ or the one she has a permanent home

Your question is u201cShould the military retirement pay received by military former spouses be subject to garnishment to pay child support owed to service members by the former spouse?u201d The short answer is yes. If you want to know why, keep reading.If your question is a practical one, whether military retirement pay can be garnished to pay court-ordered child support payable by the retirement service member to the other parent, the short answer is yes, it can be garnished.If, however, your question is a public policy question, which is whether military retirement pay should continue to be garnishable to satisfy a child support obligation of the retired service member or instead made immune from garnishment u2023 which would take an act of Congress u2023 my opinion is that Congress should not change the current law.(When it comes to public policy questions, weu2019re all really just talking about our opinions, even if some opinions are well supported with facts and arguments while others arenu2019t.)Why should the law remain unchanged? If someone has a court-ordered obligation to support his or her children, that person needs to comply with that obligation. If that person fails to pay court-ordered child support, there is no principled reason to insulate military retirement pay from being garnishable or otherwise subject to enforcement by the child support creditor. None. Military retirement is not more sacrosanct than non-military pensions or current wages or interest or dividend income, and all those other income streams are subject to garnishment for child support.

A2A - First for divorces finalized after 12/31/18 alimony is NO longer deductible.Second SBP would seem to me to be a settlement for a pension and NOT alimony. Therefore, Iu2019d be willing to bet (95%+ not willing to research it this time of year being a CPA) that a tax court would see it as a property settlement just like any other pension. Therefore, NON deductible.Nice Try though.

NOOOOOOO. You are talking to a military romance scammer. I received an email from the US Army that directly answers your question that is pasted below please keep reading.I believe you are the victim of a military Romance Scam whereas the person you are talking to is a foreign national posing as an American Soldier claiming to be stationed overseas on a peacekeeping mission. That's the key to the scam they always claim to be on a peacekeeping mission.Part of their scam is saying that they have no access to their money that their mission is highly dangerous.If your boyfriend girlfriend/future husband/wife is asking you to do the following or has exhibited this behavior, it is a most likely a scam:Moves to private messaging site immediately after meeting you on Facebook or SnapChat or Instagram or some dating or social media site. Often times they delete the site you met them on right after they asked you to move to a more private messaging siteProfesses love to you very quickly & seems to quote poems and song lyrics along with using their own sort of broken language, as they profess their love and devotion quickly. They also showed concern for your health and love for your family.Promises marriage as soon as he/she gets to state for leave that they asked you to pay for.They Requests money (wire transfers) and Amazon, iTune ,Verizon, etc gift cards, for medicine, religious practices, and leaves to come home, internet access, complete job assignments, help sick friend, get him out of trouble, or anything that sounds fishy.The military does prall the soldier needs including food medical Care and transportation for leave. Trust me, I lived it, you are probably being scammed. I am just trying to show you examples that you are most likely being connned.Below is an email response I received after I sent an inquiry to the US government when I discovered I was scammed.

While Iu2019m not an attorney, Iu2019m married to retired 1st Sgt of the US Marine Corps whose former spouse receives a portion of his military retirement/retainer pay (MRP). As such, Iu2019ll answer based on my knowledge of the Uniformed Service Former Spouse Protection Act (USFSPA).Under USFSPA, a former spouse (FS) is entitled to a portion of a service memberu2019s (SM) retirement pay regardless of the length of the marriage. For a FS to receive payments directly from the Defense Finance & Accounting Services vs from the SM, the couple must have a minimum 10 years of marriage with 10 years overlapping creditable service by the SM (i.e., the 10/10 rule). FSu2019s who were married to a SM for 20 years or more, with at least 20 years of overlapping creditable service by the SM, are entitled to the SMu2019s MRP, as well as lifetime healthcare coverage, base & commissary access.Entitlement by a FS to a SMu2019s MRP must be awarded by a court of proper jurisdiction. Without jurisdiction over the SMu2019s MRP, the SMu2019s MRP is not & cannot be considered divisible property. As such, if the FS in question has a final divorce decree/marriage settlement agreement that has already been accepted by the Court & signed by all relevant parties & does not include proper language required by DFAS that: A) Indicates the Court where the divorce was filed has properly obtained jurisdiction (i.e., the right to divide the SMu2019s MRP) & B) Awards the FS a portion of the SMu2019s MRP, not to exceed 50%, then the FS has no entitlement to a SMu2019s MRP.The only chance the FS has at obtaining any entitlement to the SMu2019s MRP, is to appeal the final/approved/signed divorce decree/marriage settlement agreement. Amending, or contesting a final divorce decree is nothing short of an uphill battle & demands the knowledge & expertise of a seasoned family law attorney who is well in matters surrounding the USFSPA. Unless the FS was forced to sign the final decree under duress (as in gun to their head, duress), without a good attorney & a hefty chunk of change to pay for said attorney, itu2019s unlikely a Judge will allow for any amendment to the existing final decree.Let us know what happens. Thanks!

First of all, someoneu2019s visa being expired does not mean they are undocumented. US visas are solely for entry, the visau2019s expiration date is the last day one can use that visa to enter the US, it has nothing to do with how long one can stay in the US. One can enter the US on the day the visa expires, and be admitted for months or years afterwards.Second, you fill out your W-4 withholding form based on your marital status and tax situation. Your spouseu2019s immigration status is not relevant to any part of the W-4 form. And generally, the tax laws apply the same way to people residing in the US, regardless of whether they are documented or undocumented. You and your spouseu2019s tax returns would be computed and filed the same way regardless of whether you and your spouse are documented or undocumented.

If you want to be in the military, you must go through some form of basic training. If you donu2019t complete it, you are discharged. You cannot pay to get out of it.I do not understand the second part of the question. You donu2019t retire or go on secret missions from basic training. You donu2019t have enough service to retire or enough training or experience to be able to contribute to a secret mission.
