In Arizona there are rules in the statute about relocating more than 100 miles. You must either have the agreement of the other parent, and you should get that in writing, or you need an order from the court. I you have an attorney assisting you with the dissolution he or she will be able to advise you. If you do not have an attorney I suggest you at least consult with an experienced and local family law attorney to talk about this.

Do I have to pay spousal support if the assets she takes do not generate income?

Answered by attorney Barbara Peyton (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
Division of assets is separate from computation of spousal support. If an asset generates income that is included in the supported spouse's side of the support equation. If the asset does not generate income but it could, the court may impute income to the supported spouse to be fair to the supporting spouse. If your spouse does not work but can and won't, you need to get an order for a vocational evaluation of the spouse. The evaluator will then make a report which shows how much your spouse could be making and job availability. I have had this work very well for the supporting spouse in my practice. Good luck.

Speak with you lawyer, no matter what else the parties divorcing should have enough sense to preserve as much money as possible for distribution between themselves.
