My question involves divorce in the State of: IL
My husband has a QDRO which entitles his ex to a specific % of his original pension. After 12 years his past employer has stopped itemizing the amount of deduction from his pension check. The "stub" does not indicate the amount being distributed to his exwife. It only reflects the amount he receives.
This change took place after a 6 month battle in which the employer had improperly split 2 different benefits causing a $402.00/ month loss to my husband. he eventually was able to prove the error and the amounts were properly redistributed.
Now he is being denied the right to know the amount being deducted from his total pension. How is this possible? The contact person states he is violating his exwifes privacy by knowing the amount of her share of his pension.
Our major concern is, through the previous problem, we learned the employer was very poor in keeping records. If it hadn't been for my husband keeping his copy of all QDRO orders and check stubs he would not have had any way of proving his claim. What could he do if there are issues in the future, if he is not entitled to this information?
Does an employer have the right to deduct a % froma pension and not document that deduction or the amount being received by the exspouse?
