IRA Divorce Settlement
I have a quick question. Is there a deadline for IRAs to be transferred to the spouse after the divorce decree is finalized?

No specific deadline, but 60 days should be plenty of time for the IRA custodian to examine the submitted court order and make the transfer. Receiving spouse will have to open an IRA account to receive the transfer if they do not have one.
