If you divorce after 11 years of marriage to a military service member, you may be entitled to certain benefits, such as a portion of their retirement pay and potential access to health care through the TRICARE program, depending on the length of the marriage and the service member's time in service. The "20/20/20 rule" applies if you were married for at least 20 years, the service member served for at least 20 years, and the marriage overlapped with at least 20 years of service. If you don’t meet those criteria, you may still be eligible for some benefits under the "20/20/15 rule," which offers limited access to certain privileges. It’s advisable to consult a legal expert to understand your specific situation and rights.
