Oleorp Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Hello will i be able to remarry and still receive my pension when i become of age...I was awarded a percentage of his pension in the final divorce papers.. thank you
Mike Preston Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Most probably, yes. It depends on a couple of things. 1) Is the "Railroad" plan governed by ERISA? It most likely is. As such, if your "awarded percentage" was communicated to the plan in the form of a DRO (Domestic Relations Order) and the plan sent back notification that the DRO was "qualified", then that can never be taken away from you unless the court changes its mind. 2) If the "Railroad" plan is not governed by ERISA then it would depend very much on plan language. Good luck!
John Feldt ERPA CPC QPA Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 You can submit a question to Robert S. Kaufman (or search his existing list). He has a Q&A column on benefitslink dedicated to Railroad Retirement Benefits. http://benefitslink.com/modperl/qa.cgi?db=qa_railroad_retirement
