Protecting Military Pensions and Benefits in a Colorado Divorce

Military divorces adhere to different rules from civilian ones. How a military pension is divided, whether the former spouse qualifies for direct payments through the Defense Finance Accounting Service (DFAS), and how Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) factors into a settlement all depend on overlapping state and federal law. One misstep can put your hard-earned benefits at risk. Whether you serve or are married to someone who does, our experienced Colorado military divorce attorneys are here to protect your rights, retirement, and family at every stage.

FAQs

In a military divorce, a spouse is generally entitled to a portion of the marital retirement benefits accrued during the marriage. How much the spouse receives is often determined by the length of the marriage during the military service period. It’s important to note the specific division can be complicated by factors like state and federal laws and pre-nuptial agreements. 

The 10-year rule in military divorce may sound straightforward when in actuality, the 10-year rule affects direct payments from the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS). If the marriage lasted less than 10 years during active duty, the court could divide benefits, but the non-military spouse might not receive direct payments. In such cases, the military spouse would have to pay the non-military spouse their share directly. 

No, you will not lose your Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) due to a divorce. The housing allowance provided to service members is intended to help cover related costs, whether you live on or off base and regardless of marital status. However, there are specific circumstances where the division of marital assets, including BAH, might be considered in a divorce settlement. Consulting a legal professional experienced in military divorces can help put your situation into context.
