Q. Catherine J. of Pennsylvania asks: "What is a Signature Guarantee and how do I obtain a Signature Guarantee?"
A. Evan, from the QDRO Department of Pension Evaluators & QDROS Of
Troyan, Inc Associates Group writes: "A Signature Guarantee can be obtained from an officer of a bank,
a trust company, or a member firm of a U.S. Stock exchange.
A notary public cannot provide a signature guarantee. To be valid, a signature guarantee must include the words "Signature
Guaranteed," be signed by the guarantor, and indicate his or her
title and position. It must also show the name of the institution issuing
the guarantee.
The signature of the spouse that is relinquishing the assets requires a
Signature Guarantee."
