Hi all
First post as I am recently separated after almost 43 years of marriage. I am a retiree with a generous health care package. However, my spouse's benefits under my plan expire the day we are divorced. Has anyone here had experience arriving at a "compensation package" for the spouse's loss of benefits? By the way, I did a cursory check with Blue Cross online and my spouse is basically uninsurable because the x didn't take care of her self. Where would one look for such info? How can a value be assessed in such a situation?
Another question re: divorce. I understand that a year after separation in Ontario a divorce can occur. Is that 1 year after I left my spouse or 1 year after the separation agreement is signed?
Thanks in advance
