Do I only get half until day we divorced or does it accumulate interest or get half of all retirement when she retires?

Normally it is at the date of divorce. You should make sure there is a QDRO in place though. If she retires and no QDRO you can be out of luck.

Yes, you will need to have your husband served with the divorce petition. If you do not know where he lives, you may want to hire a private investigator to assist you in finding an address for him. Otherwise, you will probably need an attorney to get your divorce approved by a court because they will not do it you cannot get him served with process.

Can I revise the divorce to where he only gets to claim my child when he is up to date on support?

Check with your tax preparer, but the usual rule is that the parent with primary possession of the child gets the dependency exemption, no matter what the state court divorce decree says.
