If, based on a court order, a portion of the vested benefits of one spouse in a divorce transfers to the pension scheme of the other, the benefits of the obligated spouse will be reduced according to actuarial principles.
However, the obligated spouse may then purchase the transferred benefits.
If, based on a court order, an insured member receives part of the vested benefits of his/her divorced spouse, these benefits will be credited to the member's retirement account.
