QDRO, can railroad retirement benefits be divided by divorce

Can railroad retirement benefits be divided in a divorce by a QDRO?



Yes and No.
Railroad Retirement benefits are broken down into two Tiers. Tier 1 can be described as a social security equivalent and is NOT subject to QDRO. However, Tier 2 which is more like a private pension CAN be made subject to a QDRO.
