Text Version:Property Settlements
Employee tier II benefits and supplemental annuities are subject to property settlements
in annulment, separation or divorce cases.
Notes:
- The Railroad Retirement Board must honor court orders that treat non-tier I
benefits as property subject to division in proceedings related to divorce,
annulment or legal separation, and which order the RRB to make payments to
the divorced spouse.
- In separation or divorce cases, there is no limit on the amount subject to division of
employee’s tier II benefits and supplemental annuities.
Tier I benefits are not subject to division.
- Payment of a partition amount as part of a property
distribution can be made after the employee’s death unless a court order
requires termination of payments upon the employee’s death.
