Your spouse is entitled to one-half of whatever was contributed to the plan because of your employment during your marriage. The part you had before the marriage is your separate property.

I just married on April 26 2020 I brought my fiancee over from Kenya on a K1 Visa so we can do this here. Is she entitle to my pension ?

Answered by attorney Ronda Elizabeth Harris
Divorce lawyer at Harris Law Firm, PLLC
Getting married does not make all of your assets community property. Community property is what is earned during the marriage. However, there are more things to be concerned about when you marry someone who is not an American. I would caution you to be careful. I have represented multiple people who have spouses from overseas and have been caught up in a marriage scam.  It starts with demands for money, access to all money, then constant fighting, attempts to provoke you to physical violence, and it gets worse from there. If any of this sounds familar, then you need to seek an attorney immediately. The way the rest of this plays out .....you go to jail while your new spouse cleans you out and gets a fast track to a green card. If you cannot afford an attorney and any of this sounds familiar, I encourage you to do some internet research on this issue as soon as possible.

Is change of venue mandatory in this Texas divorce?

Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at Overstreet Law Firm
You could complete the case in the county where your spouse lived if the spouse lived there for 90 days before you filed. But your spouse may ask for a change a venue to the county where the children live (which is now the county where everyone lives now).
