FAQ

An annuity purchased prior to marriage may not be subject to a division of property. However, if your annuity was purchased during your marriage, it may likely be included in the division of property. That may mean a contract split or total forfeiture by you or your spouse, depending on other conditions.

Splitting a nonqualified annuity does not require a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO). A qualified annuity is like an IRA. You deposit money into the contract and it is tax deductible; withdrawals are 100% taxable.

The division of an annuity that is considered marital property must meet state law and insurers' rules about divorce. The passage of time affects the value of payments. A court may not consider certain annuities as marital property if they were purchased prior to the marriage and if no one made premium payments after.

When an annuity contract transfers from one individual to another, the transferred amount is treated as a distribution. The original owner is taxed on any tax-deferred gain and possibly subject to a 10% penalty.

With some annuities, payments end with the death of the annuity's owner, called the annuitant, while others provide for the payments to be made to a spouse or other annuity beneficiary for years afterward. The purchaser of the annuity makes the decisions on these options at the time the contract is drawn up.

The most common disposition of an annuity in divorce proceedings is to split the annuity in half. This is typically executed by withdrawing half of the account value and giving it to one of the spouses.

Joint & Survivor AnnuitiesA common type of annuity with joint annuitants is a joint and survivor annuity. This is often purchased by married couples and can provide income for two people, with payment based on the lives of the owner and spouse, who is the joint annuitant.

Qualified Annuities A couple with an annuity held in a qualified retirement plan including a 401(k) or an IRA account needs a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) to protect tax exemption.

There is nothing in the tax code that dictates how an annuity should be divided in a divorce situation. Therefore, each insurance company is forced to adopt its own procedures. In general, the insurance company's first priority is to establish a procedure that is easy and limits their potential liability.

A pension earned by one spouse is generally considered a joint asset, which means it's subject to division in divorce. If a marital split is in the works, the following are four ways to protect your pension benefits as much as possible.
