I married an American citizen 10 years ago. We live here. We have no children together and we are both in our sixties. When my husband gets angry, which happens a lot, he threatens me with divorcing me and taking half of everything I own.
When we married, I owned my own home outright. I had a well paying job and defined benefit superannuation. He came into the marriage with no assets and no money. He has only worked here for six months in total and we now live on my superannuation.
He has never paid any bills but does some work around the house occasionally. He claims he is entitled to everything I have including everything I owned before we were married and my superannuation which we accessed 4 years after he got here and which I paid into for 30 years without him.
I sometimes think I am living with a border who does not pay rent, especially when he becomes abusive.
Is it possible for me to find out if he is actually entitled to all of this, he also claims he has to be left everything in my will. Is that so?
