I divorced my ex-wife back in 2001 and retired from the Military in 2010. She receives a portion of my retirement but it is not paid to her directly from DFAS, but rather an allotment I setup through them. We were told she could not get paid directly from DFAS even with a CDRO. DFAS cannot make automatic payments/division of Military Retirement without meeting the 10/10 requirement (10 years married/with 10 years total service time)
I usually report it as alimony/other payments. How do I report it with a 1099-R from DFAS? Have I been doin this wrong?
