In North Carolina, there is no one answer to the question, How long do you have to be married to get alimony? The courts take a variety of factors into account when making this determination. If you and your spouse are considering divorce, its essential to understand how alimony works in our state.
Alimony, also called spousal support in NC, is generally awarded during divorce proceedings as a means to assist a dependent spouse. The State of North Carolina considers a dependent spouse to be one who is substantially dependent on the other spouse for financial support, or maintenance, or in need of maintenance.

Like most states, North Carolina allows a court to award alimony (also called spousal support) when a couple divorces. The court must consider a list of factors in deciding whether an alimony award is appropriate, how much to award, and for how long.
The purpose of alimony is to limit any unfair economic effects of a divorce by providing a continuing income to a non-wage-earning or lower-wage-earning spouse.

What is a spouse entitled to in a divorce in NC? A spouse is typically entitled to some amount of alimony or spousal support, depending on the decision of the NC divorce courts. A spouse may also be entitled to a 50/50 split of marital property if so decided by the courts.
Either spouse can receive alimony if they meet one of two criteria: The spouse cant meet their own reasonable financial needs without the other spouses income or assets. The spouse cant maintain the standard of living they enjoyed during the marriage without the other spouses income or assets.
General support is usually awarded to a spouse with substantially less income potential than the other spouse in order to maintain a certain standard of living. In most cases, courts will award general spousal support only when the marriage lasted longer than ten years.
