Spousal Support and Maintenance

Spousal support is often payable if there is a significant difference between the incomes of the spouses. Legal spouses and common law partners may have an obligation to pay. Where there is an entitlement to spousal support in B.C., the Court will usually refer to the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines which includes ranges of spousal support based on the length of the relationship, the incomes of the parties and whether there are any children.
