The American Retirees Association (ARA) has 25 years experience with the Uniformed Services Former Spouses Protection Act (USFSPA), and people who have been impacted by it. If you have any questions about your involvement with the USFSPA, or you want a report on progress being made with the reform of this unfair law, contact ARA "Action Line" phone (202) 609-9948, or contactara@aol.com email address. When/if you do so, be advised that the ARA provides general information on the issue of non disability military retirement benefits when treated as a divisible marital asset. The ARA is not engaged in rendering legal, accounting, or other professional services.
State laws dealing with domestic relations vary widely and change frequently. If expert legal or other service is required, please consult with competent professionals. You will find our book, "Divorce and the Military II" to be an unexcelled source of information. Consider it MUST reading for both yourself and your legal counsel. If, after reading it, you still have questions, you may reach one of the book's co-authors via the above contact number/email address.
Finally, if you are, or should you become a USFSPA casualty, your work remains unfinished if, at the end, you have done only the best you could do for yourself. We urge you to join the tens of thousands of military retirees who are living under the USFSPA shadow, in their quest to restore fairness and equity to the military divorce process.
