Many women believe that a maintenance case must conclude—which often takes 2-3 years—before they can receive any financial support for themselves or their children. However, this is a common misconception.
What is Interim Maintenance?
The law provides a mechanism to ensure that wives and children are not left without financial support while a case is pending in court. You do not have to wait for the final judgment. In fact, you can file an application for Interim Maintenance at the same time you file your main case.
How Does the Court Decide the Amount?
The court takes immediate notice of this application to ensure the family's needs are met. The amount is typically determined based on:
- The Husband's Income: His monthly earnings and financial capacity.
- Lifestyle: The standard of living maintained by the husband and the family.
