Retirement tax questions
Do you or do you not receive your husbands retirement? You began your message by stating that you receive part of your husband’s retirement and that he didnt supply you with a copy of his 1099. Then you said your alimony stopped years ago. So which is it? If you are receiving part of his military retirement it is considered alimony. And if you divorced prior to 2018 you have to claim it as income on your taxes and your husband gets to claim it as a deduction on his. But yes, he should provide you with a copy of it for your taxes. But don’t you also have access to your bank statements that you can add up the amount you received every month to claim it on your taxes.
(I am not a. Tax prepayer or attorney, just the wife of a military veteran whose been through a divorce so I know what the exes try to squeeze out of the veterans)
