Answer #1

hi Felix here, I can well understand your concern from the query raised, paying of maintenance changes from case to case, if your wife is earning or has not applied for a maintenance the you need not pay, but still you have a moral obligation towards your wife, but if your wife files for maintenance in the court of law, then you will be directed to pay, you can contact me for further clarifications, thank you
