Retirement Annuity Supplement Clarity Act

This Act may be cited as the Retirement Annuity Supplement Clarity Act.
Section 8467 of title 5, United States Code, is amended—
by redesignating subsection (c) as subsection (d); and
by inserting after subsection (b) the following:
If a court decree, court order, or agreement described in paragraph (1) of subsection (a) expressly divides an annuity under subchapter II, an annuity supplement payment made under section 8421 shall be included in the computation of that division, unless the court decree, court order, or agreement expressly excludes division of the annuity supplement.
Section 8421 of title 5, United States Code, is amended by striking subsection (c).
The amendment made by subsection (a) shall apply to all annuity supplement payments under section 8421 of title 5, United States Code, that begin on or after the date of enactment of this Act.
In this paragraph:
The term annuity supplement means an annuity supplement under section 8421 of title 5, United States Code.
The term covered annuitant means any annuitant—
who was retired on or before the date of enactment of this Act;
who is or was entitled to an annuity supplement;
whose annuity was subject to a court order described in section 8467(a)(1) of title 5, United States Code, that was silent regarding the annuity supplement or that included language that expressly excluded the annuity supplement from division; and
whose annuity supplement was recomputed by the Office of Personnel Management during the period beginning on June 30, 2016, and ending on the date of enactment of this Act to retroactively include the annuity supplement in the division of the annuity.
The Office of Personnel Management shall pay a one-time payment from the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund established under section 8348 of title 5, United States Code, to a covered annuitant who received an annuity supplement under section 8421 of title 5, United States Code, before the date of enactment of this Act an amount (without interest) equal to the amount deducted from the annuity of the covered annuitant as a result of including the annuity supplement in the computation of a court-ordered division or other scenario described in subparagraph (A)(ii)(III).
Overpayments paid to a covered annuitant, or any overpayments of apportionment paid to a former spouse of a covered annuitant (as the case may be), before the date of enactment of this Act, which resulted from excluding the annuity supplement of the covered annuitant in the computation of a court-ordered apportionment, shall be waived.
