Re: pension plan

How much of you spouse's pension is determined by the coverture fraction. That is determined by dividing the number of months you were married by the number of months that the pension account existed. This fraction determines the percentage of the pension account that is part of the marital estate. Once that is determined you would get some percentage of that amount.

If you have any question feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
