(3)

PERS will notify an alternate payee of an event described in ORS 238.465 (Benefits payable to others under certain judgments)(2)(a)(B), unless the alternate payee has already commenced receiving alternate payee benefits.

(4)

PERS shall issue the applicable tax reporting forms directly to the recipient of any funds that are issued by PERS pursuant to a final court order.

(5)

PERS shall notify the member or the alternate payee, or both, of any benefit payments that are reduced by PERS pursuant to Section 415 of the Internal Revenue Code.
