Dear Sir/Madam,

If you are married in community of property and your husband received a pension payout but is not sharing the money with you, according to South African law, you have a legal right to claim half of that pension payout as it forms part of your joint estate. If your husband refuses to share this, you may need to take legal steps through the courts to secure your share.

Best regards.
