If an order affects benefits payable under more than one public retirement system, the member or retiree or any alternate payee should submit the order to each public retirement system for review. Each system's determination of whether the order is a qualified domestic relations order shall affect only benefits payable by that system. If TRS determines that an order is a qualified domestic relations order, but another system determines that an order is not a qualified domestic relations order and the order is subsequently modified by a court, the amended order should be submitted to TRS for review.
