On Determining the Qualification of a Domestic Relations Order, with Examples
Ferenczy Benefits Law Center Link to more items from this source
June 12, 2020

"On a practical basis, it is critical that the DRO be written in a manner that permits the Plan Administrator to carry out the order without running the risk of a dispute about what was supposed to be paid to the alternate payee. Therefore, the Plan Administrator must review the DRO carefully to ensure that there are no ambiguities that could create a problem when the payments are made to the alternate payee. If there are ambiguities, the Plan Administrator may either advise the parties of its interpretation of the relevant language or ask that the parties clarify the language of the DRO."
