What is a QDRO? When is the court going to order my QDRO?
A qualified domestic relations order (or QDRO) is a special order that allows pension plans to be divided. It orders direct separate payments to each of the divorced or separated marriage partners. QDROs are governed by Federal law and are subject to the approval of the pension plan administrator. A QDRO is a technically sophisticated order.
