QDROs: Statutory Product of ERISA

ERISA’s Anti-Assignment Rule and Exception

Act (“ERISA”) and the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) prohibit retirement plan participants from assigning their interest in a plan.

QDRO Defined

A “qualified domestic relations order” (QDRO) is:

• A “domestic relations order”
• That creates the existence of an “alternate payee’s” right to

receive all or a portion of the benefits payable with respect to a “participant” under a retirement plan, and

• That includes certain required information (i.e., content

requirements) and does not require the plan to agree to certain provisions (i.e., prohibited provisions)
