I have a question that isn't related directly to taxes for a payment, but to registering with DFAS for automatic payments for the court ordered "26%". The order states exactly: "...wherein the parties have been married over 10 years during the military members credible military service, such that DFAS shall directly pay Wife her share of Husband's disposable military retired pay according to the following formula, to begin November 1, 2019.
The former spouse is awarded 26 percentage of the member's disposable military retirement pay."
I have not been able to find a solid answer on this, but I am curious. What is the time limit for me to file with DFAS since the start date was in 2019? Is it too late to file, i.e. is there a deadline? I have paid her monthly (direct payments) and am caught up to date. Any help in answering this is greatly appreciated.
