The question you are asking about deals with how a pension is treated once it is in pay in the context of separation or divorce. Either the pension is treated as an asset and divided or it is considered income for the purposes of dealing with the issue of spousal support. Without knowing the details of your case, I cannot provide you any specifics regarding which approach should be taken. I suggest you consult with a lawyer in your area for further information.
