Retirement Annuity Supplement Clarity Act
This bill, the Retirement Annuity Supplement Clarity Act, clarifies how federal retirement annuity supplements are divided in court orders, such as divorce decrees. For future court orders, these supplements will be included in the division of an annuity unless the order specifically states otherwise. The bill also provides a one-time payment to certain federal retirees whose annuity supplements were retroactively divided by the Office of Personnel Management between 2016 and the bill's enactment, despite their court orders being silent or excluding the supplement. Additionally, any related overpayments made to annuitants or former spouses before the bill's enactment are waived.
