Hi, I will be seeking divorce next year on basis of 2 years sep with consent. Ex retired 18 months ago from police and received large lump sum and pension. He started a new job 2 days following retirement and now pays into another pension. I am asking for a pension sharing order when we go for divorce. Will his new pension be taken into consideration also. Married 26 years. I received part of his lump sum (not half) and get £300 a month under a Separation Agreement, which I am contesting also. His monthly income is approx £4000 and mine is £1200. He pays half mortgage under agreement. I cannot pay this on my own. One son still at home but over 21.
Also I need the monthly payments from him now and I believe the pension will not be in payment until I am 60. Any advice please.

The new pension started after separation so no it wont be included, not that it matters its value will be minimal, it would probably cost more to split than its total value.

Thanks, I agree I should not be entitled to any of his new pension, but he is still only 49 and when he does retire, he will get 2 pensions. Would this be taken into consideration when the court determin how much I should be entitled to.
