EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE GEPF AND DIVORCE CLAIMS 1. How to claim your divorce benefit from the GEPF Government Employee Pension Law Amendment 2. Have you claimed your divorce benefit from the GEPF but are not getting any results? Government Employee Pension Fund...
Good day Tobeka, the GEPF will endorse the claim on grounds of the Divorce Decree. They will not deduct anything when making payments. In other words, should your ex-spouse submit all the documents to claim his 50%, the GEPF will pay according to the Divorce Decree. Regarding your bond, I am not a lawyer and can therefor not give any legal advise. I suggest you speak to your lawyer about this. Regards, Janene
Government Employee Pension Fund (GEPF) Divorce Claims

Dear Keitumetse, I trust you are working through a lawyer to finalize your divorce. The GEPF takes more or less 60 days to pay-out pension benefit to a member once he/she resigned. I suggest you ask your lawyer to apply for an urgent Court Interdict preventing the GEPF from paying him until the divorce is finalized and you can apply for the divorce benefit.I advise that this interdict is then hand delivered to the GEPF to ensure they receive it; also ask for proof of receipt. You are welcome to contact me for further assistance.

Good day Trainer, if nothing is stipulated in your Divorce Decree, he cannot claim. If it is stipulated but he never put in a claim before, he can claim once you resign.

Good day Leone
In order for the GEPF to make payment to your ex-spouse, the claim must be stipulated in your divorce decree. You can obtain a copy of your divorce order at the court where you got divorced.

Morning Jules
The GEPF will only make payment to an ex-spouse on grounds of a Court Order (Divorce Decree) ordering them to do so. If you and your ex-spouse never agreed to this and it is not stipulated in your Divorce Decree, he cannot claim from the Fund.

Good day Naledi
Do you only need the pension number to stipulate it in your Divorce Settlement? If so, your attorney can use the following citation and it will be accepted by GEPF:
"In terms of Section 7(7) and 7(8)(a)(i) and (ii) of the Divorce Act 70 of 1979 it is agreed that 50% of the pension interest, due and assigned to the (member), held in the Government Employees Pension Fund be paid to the (claimant) by the aforementioned fund when any such pension benefits accrue in respect of the (member), up to the date of the granting of the Decree of Divorce. An endorsement to this effect must be made in the records of the abovementioned Pension Fund, member ID number XXXXX." '
Contact me should you have any other questions.

Morning Patricia
The GEPF will only pay a divorce benefit on grounds of a valid Divorce Court Order. In other words,if it is stipulated in your divorce order/settlement that your ex-spouse can claim against your pension, GEPF will pay him the benefit without further permission from your side and/or informing you of this. I do not understand your remark about "some third party" but if you are referring to the debt against your Pension, you can read my article
http://www.xpressionassist.com/2013/09/gepf-government-employee-pension-fund-as-a-defined-benefit-fund.html
where it explains that the member will now owe GEPF the amount paid to the non-member spouse and that this amount will also accrue interest. This is so because GEPF paid, on the member’s behalf, the debt he or she owes to the non-member spouse. You are welcome to contact me should you have further questions. Regards

Good day Avril
First of all, yes you pay tax on our divorce benefit and it is subtracted before payment is made to you.
Secondly, let your ex-husband contact me for assistance with his resignation benefit.

Hello Fred
In order to have a valid claim against the GEPF it must be specifically stipulated in the divorce decree that the non-member has a claim. If it is not stipulated the GEPF will not make payment. If it is stipulated a claim can be made against the member by the executor of the deceased ex-spouse.
Hope this answers your question.

Good day Fred
In the past, the "clean break principle" did not apply to the Government Employee Pension Fund. But in 2011 the Cape High Court declared the law governing the GEPF unconstitutional and ordered the government to remedy the situation.
The Bill has been inacted and legislation has been amended - Government Gazette Vol 558 No 34864 of 14 December 2011.
Former spouses (the non-member) of members contributing to the GEPF can now claim their share of the fund as stipulated in their divorce order and don’t have to wait until retirement, resignation or death.
