Does my wife receive alimony after one year of marriage?
It’s been 1 year since I got married. Does my wife get alimony?
Whether one should pay alimony to the wife after marriage for one year absolutely depends on various factors. In most courts, alimony is determined by the spouse's needs, their potential to maintain a reasonable living standard, and the other spouse's finances. If your wife can demonstrate that she cannot support herself adequately or that she made sacrifices during the marriage impacting her earning potential, she may be eligible for alimony. Ultimately, a court will consider these factors when deciding on alimony eligibility and amount.
Since you both are married, there is a scope for your wife to get alimony provided certain factors or conditions are satisfied such as either of you would have to go for divorce. Alimony comes into picture when divorce is applied. If the wife is dependent on you financially, has children to maintain, contributions to the family and she is not found guilty of marital misconduct like adultery, then she is eligible for alimony.
Sir, if you are still married, your wife does not automatically receive alimony. Alimony is typically awarded during divorce proceedings based on factors like financial need, marriage duration, and other considerations.
