Posted By: jss4 Trying to unlock WS bank accounts - 12/13/14 10:58 PM
I have discovered my WS has some accounts with USAA. One of those USAA accounts was revealed during our divorce but the other account was never revealed. I have hired a PI who has recovered some other accounts but seems to be having a more difficult time cracking these two USAA accounts. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice; as I am 99% sure WS has hidden money in offshore bank accounts or in this USAA account. Thanks.

Sorry that it took me so long to spot this. Hope you are still around. You have two actions that you should take.

First ask the court for permission to instruct USAA to immediately freeze all the accounts connected to your ex husband's ss number. This will need to be authorized by the judge that handled your divorce petition. This can be done without forewarning him if you have evidence that he lied on the marital asset disclosure that he set before the court.

Second is to issue subpoenas against all the USAA accounts, same judge so try to do both together. That will give you access to all the records going back to your divorce filing. Once you have those records, you will be able to see any asset transfers overseas. You may have to do a second round of subpoenas for the wire transfer details to see where the money went.

Your divorce was final almost 15 yrs ago...do you have any legal recourse in your state? Is there a statute of limitations? And is it worth all the headache and legal fees?

Ah well spotted. Totally pointless in throwing good money after bad. Drop it, nothing you can do this long after your divorce.

How do you know this? I read all her 5 posts and didn't see where she stated this.

You mean her first ever post on MB, not the first post to this thread.

Yep smile

Didn't see mention of a new H so I am assuming this is for an old divorce. Could be wrong but even the most recent post is from Dec 2014.
