Iowa Code § 29A.100: Dependent benefits.

Dependents of a service member are entitled to the benefits accorded to service members under the provisions of sections 29A.101 through 29A.105. Dependents may obtain the benefits upon application to a court, unless, in the opinion of the court, the ability of the dependents to comply with the terms of the obligation, contract, lease, or bailment has not been materially impaired by reason of the military service of the service member of the dependents.
