Can I ask my ex-husband for money after divorce?

Legal analysis: If it's purely for money, it won't work, because divorce doesn't matter. If you want child support, you can.

Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Article 1085 If a child is directly raised by one party after divorce, the other party shall bear part or all of the alimony. The amount and duration of the expenses shall be agreed upon by both parties; If the agreement fails, the people's court shall make a judgment.

The agreement or judgment stipulated in the preceding paragraph shall not prevent the children from making reasonable demands to either parent over the original agreement or judgment when necessary.

Article 1076 If a husband and wife divorce voluntarily, they shall sign a written divorce agreement and apply for divorce registration in person at the marriage registration office.

The divorce agreement shall specify the expression of willingness of both parties to divorce and the consensus on matters such as child support, property and debt disposal.

Article 1079 If one of the spouses requests a divorce, the relevant organization may mediate or directly file a divorce lawsuit with the people's court.

When trying divorce cases, the people's court shall conduct mediation; If the relationship has indeed broken down and mediation is ineffective, divorce should be granted.

In any of the following circumstances, if mediation fails, divorce shall be granted:

(a) bigamy or cohabitation with others;

(2) committing domestic violence or abusing or abandoning family members;

(three) gambling, drug abuse and other bad habits;

(four) separated for two years due to emotional discord;

(5) Other circumstances that lead to the breakdown of the marriage relationship.

If one party is declared missing and the other party files a divorce lawsuit, the divorce shall be granted.

After the people's court ruled that divorce is not allowed, if the two parties have separated for one year and one party files a divorce lawsuit again, divorce shall be granted.
