The Different Types of Alimony
If the judge in your divorce case opts to award you or your spouse alimony, they may order one of the following types:
- Permanent periodic alimony, which generally continues until the spouse receiving payments either remarries or dies
- Durational alimony, which lasts for a set amount of time not exceeding the length of the marriage
- Bridge-the-gap alimony, which is meant to help the spouse receiving payments while they’re transitioning to being single (for up to two years)
- Rehabilitative alimony, which is intended to cover the costs of education and/or retraining for a spouse who hasn’t worked for a while (or at all)
- Temporary alimony, which lasts until a divorce is finalized
