A more thorough explanation:

SEPARATE SUPPORT

Separate support refers to a legal arrangement where a couple decides to live apart but still provide financial support to each other. It is similar to separate maintenance, which is a court-ordered arrangement for one spouse to provide financial support to the other spouse while they are living apart.

John and Jane have decided to separate but they still want to support each other financially. They agree that John will pay Jane a certain amount of money each month to help with her living expenses. This is an example of separate support.

Another example is when a court orders one spouse to pay for the other spouse's living expenses, such as rent, utilities, and food, while they are living apart. This is called separate maintenance.

Separate support is a legal arrangement where a couple decides to live apart but still provide financial support to each other. This can be done voluntarily or through a court order. The purpose of separate support is to ensure that both spouses are able to maintain a certain standard of living even though they are no longer living together.
