There are several different forms of spousal support the Court may order and the form may change over time. Temporary support may be ordered during the divorce proceedings but will only be available for a limited amount of time with an end date set by a judge. Fixed duration support is most commonly ordered in Idaho and similar to temporary support has an end to the payments. A judge may ask for a rehabilitation plan from the receiving party for them to become self-supporting. In some cases, permanent support may be ordered if the circumstances fit the necessary criteria such as disability or advanced age.
