If I recently divorced and volunteered to pay alimony for 3 months, can I pay this directly to my ex or does that need to go through the court?
Question Details: So that there is a record of my payment besides my bank statement?
If you have an agreement with your "ex" with respect to spousal support also known as alimony, it is best that you pay your "ex" directly with a check as opposed to having the payment go through the court system. Make a copy of each check you give to your "ex" so that you will have a record of what payments you make.
