My husband and I have been married for 22 almost 23 years we are planning to divorce but are stuck on dividing his retirement, he has the old cilvil service plan since he has worked for the post office for 30 years, he also bought back 2years of military retirement while we were married. He maintains that I am only entitled to 11 years of his retirement, half of the 22years. I have been a stay at home mom most of our years together and was counting on sharing half of his retirement. Also he wants to do a do-it -yourself divorce, I don't think this is a good idea what with the complicated postal retirement. We have been living apart for 6 months but have not done any legal paperwork, do we still consider this time into the length of the marriage. Any thoughts? Thank you.
