Can a refund be attached by other parties and therefore the account may not be paid to the member directly?
Generally, except for a few exceptions, employee contributions and other amounts held in the system are exempt from levy to enforce the collection of a debt, and are not subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or charge of any kind, either voluntary or involuntary, without first being received by the person entitled to the amount under the terms of the system. The exceptions primarily include unpaid state, local, or federal taxes, a Child Support Enforcement Order for unpaid child support, and up to one month’s unpaid earnings of an individual employed by a member. In addition, a member’s right to receive benefits may be assigned by a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as a result of a divorce or dissolution.
