Oh I completely agree on all points and I’ve been working for the “government” since late 70’s 😂 so I get your points. I also don’t want to misrepresent or misfile anything not due. I understand the recent decisions about alimony per se, just unclear on how to report something that is clearly and specifically NOT alimony and in fact paid to another and not me. Hope that all makes sense, my reference to the local court was only to reflect she is NOT getting alimony rather a portion of a retirement plan she earned herself.
