Qualified Public Pension Subtraction

I am a divorced spouse of a retired police officer. I am collecting a monthly benefit based on my ex-spouse's police and fire retirement plan. His employment was as a basic member and he never paid into social security. Do I qualify for the Qualified Public Pension Subtraction? MN Dept of Revenue referred me to PERA but they are unable to give me a definitive answer. Thanks!
