I have been legally seperated since June 07 and have been paying temp support. Are you saying that is I get divorced this June 09 (which wont happen - but lets just say it will) the I wont get credit for paying 2 years of support. If I have to pay , it would be for another 3 years. We were married 6 years. Family Law sucks for the inocent.
