More details to this question:
I live in Virginia. I have been unemployed since December 2014. I received tax money. My husband and I separated in February because I told him to leave. He was paying all bills. He left like I requested and has not returned. I had surgery in Dec. 2014 but been in and out of hospital. I have not returned to work. We do not have any children together although I have a son by another man. Can I get Alimony or Spouse support from him? We live in VA.

Spousal support is determined by a number of factors set forth in Virginia Code 20-107.1. These include the length of the marriage and whether he supported you during the marriage, as well as the disparity in your incomes and his ability to pay.
