It depends on the situation and the individual divorce settlement, only your lawyer/attorney could give you an exact amount..

If you are currently working that also will be figured into it. And if your not working then your going to have to explain why and that will have a bearing on it also .

I don't know how to post a site BUT found this:

2) If I am not working right now, at the initial Order to Show Cause hearing, will I be required to find a job immediately?
At the order to show cause hearing, the judge is not concerned about the employability of the wife. Instead, at this stage, the judge merely wants to preserve the status quo and provide the wife with sufficient income for her basic needs, consistent with the parties' life style.
3) How does a judge determine spousal support at the time of the trial?
At the trial of the dissolution, the California Family Code provides the judge with a long list of factors that are to be considered in determining the amount and duration of spousal support. This list includes such factors as the length of the marri age, the parties' prior living standard, the extent to which the supported spouse contributed to the attainment of an education or professional license by the other spouse, the presence of young children in the home, and the employment opportunities avail able to the spouse requesting support.
