SPOUSAL SUPPORT
A legal duty to give financial assistance to each other exists between common law couples and married couples. Spousal support is likely to be paid by the spouse with a higher income after separation. In some cases, the spouse with a lower income is not entitled to support because of several factors.

Spousal Support Payment
Spousal support is determined by several factors if it is payable after divorce. These considerations include:
​​
-
The income of the spouses
-
The financial needs of the spouses
-
The length of the marriage
-
The tasks of each spouse during marriage
