an amount or form of benefit that isn’t available under the plan.
A spouse or former spouse who receives part of the benefits from a retirement plan under a QDRO reports the payments received as if they were a plan participant. The spouse or former spouse is allocated a share of the participant’s cost (investment in the contract) equal to the cost times a fraction. The numerator of the fraction is the present value of the benefits payable to the spouse or former spouse. The denominator is the present value of all benefits payable to the participant.
A distribution that is paid to a child or other dependent under a QDRO is taxed to the plan participant.
