Understanding Basics of Alimony in Utah Contrary to popular belief, getting alimony after a divorce is not an automatic process. It usually applies when one spouse earns more than the other and where financial help is necessary to balance living standards between both parties.

In Utah, the law mandates that the judge may order alimony only up to the number of years that the marriage lasted. So if the couple was married for 17 years, the support can last up to 17 years. Any extension will be at the discretion of the family court.

Most alimony payments in Utah are periodic (monthly) and due on the first of every month unless the court orders otherwise. Most judges include an income withholding order for alimony, which directs the paying spouse's employer to withhold the payments from the employee's paycheck and forward it directly to the court.

Utah's guidelines are based on the "Income Shares" model. They use gross and adjusted incomes of both parents to determine the child support obligation for each parent.

Generally, in determining alimony, the court considers the parties' standard of living at the time of separation. In short marriages with no children, the court may consider the standard of living when the marriage began. Sometimes, the court will try to equalize the parties' standards of living.

The court considers the following factors when deciding whether to award alimony: The standard of living during the marriage. This includes income, value of real and personal property, and any other factor that the court thinks is important for understanding how the parties lived during their marriage.

40% of the high earner's net monthly income minus 50% of the low earner's net monthly income. For instance, if Spouse A earns $5,000 per month and Spouse B earns $2,500 per month, temporary spousal support might be calculated as follows: 40% of $5,000 = $2,000. 50% of $2,500 = $1,250.

Alimony is usually around 40% of the paying party's income. This number is different in different states and different situations. The court also looks at how much the other party makes or could make and how much they need to maintain their standard of living.

Child support is calculated using the gross monthly income of both parents and the number of overnights the child spends in each household.
