More details to this question:
I am military, and currently seeking a divorce from my wife. She lives in our house in SC with our son. I am living in Kansas. I am the person who is on the mortgage for our house. The JAG office told me that I am obligated to give her so much money a month based on the basic allowance for housing rate with dependants. I have provided my wife with that money. However, she is not using it to pay our mortgage, which I am not 100% sure that she is inclined to do. Am I authorized to use the money I am obligated to give her every month and put it straight towards my mortgage, without having to supplement her with any other money until the divorce is final?

You may wish to reach out and consult counsel concerning your divorce. A discussion based on your specific set of facts could help you better understand your rights and obligations concerning any potential support to be paid to your spouse and in what manner that support is paid.
