Hey eveyone,
Back in May my wife cheated, moved out and we are now separated, aiming for a divorce in 1 years time when allowable. She is living elsewhere, BUT she continues to pay for the mortgage!
I know for a fact she can't afford it. I'm guessing she is paying her rent with debt. I can tell she has not gotten a second job unless the pay is in cash and not direct deposit. She is being stubborn and doesn't want to let go of the house. I've already petitioned for court for a divorce, although my lawyer said we will most likely not go in front of a judge.
The mortgage and property tax comes out of one joint account. I can't change this until it's up for renewal in 3 years time.
I've created a new bank and transferred all my bills that come out automatically.
I'm about to transfer my pay deposit. My plan is that each paycheque I only put it in what is necessary to cover the mortgage and property tax. Currently my pay goes into the same joint account and I move out what I need. In a way it's the same, but lately I've noticed she's spending some of my money. I need to put a stop to that, even if it hurts her. I have no choice. I'm managing OK as I found a renter to cover the financial loss.
Question is this. I'm starting to worry that she might just spend that money I put in for the mortg+prop tax and then make it look like I was the one who missed out on a payment. I plan on buying her share out and that could bite my ass.
She also thinks that the debt will be split come D-Day, but I have already confirmed with my lawyer that it's not the case.
Any advice?
