QDRO is an abbreviation for Qualified Domestic Relations Order, which divides a party’s pension or other deferred compensation account in divorce or legal separation. QDRO’s are for private employer accounts. If the party involved is an employee of state or local government (such as a police officer, fireman, teacher, etc.) the order is called an EDRO (Eligible Domestic Relations Order).
