It looks highly likely that we are going to court to settle our finances, he has backtracked on a verbal agreement before it has been made into Consent Order.
We both have RAF pensions, mine earned over 17 years and his 18 years. 14 years of my pension was earned prior to marriage and his was 6 years prior to marriage.
My pension is in payment after medical discharge in 2002 (no CEV available on mine due to goverment review of pensions). His CETV is approx 100k.
This will make a massive difference to what goes into the joint pot and could be the decider into whether I am able to afford to stay in the FHM with two boys (aged 9 and 10)
Hoping that someone can shed some light on this. many thanks
