You may be required to pay alimony or child support from your TSP account.

If the TSP receives a complete, qualifying legal process for garnishment of your TSP account for alimony or child support, the TSP will freeze your account, preventing any loans or withdrawals.

The freeze on your account will be removed when payment has been made, or upon receipt of an order removing the freeze.

Be sure to read the TSP booklet Court Orders and Powers of Attorney for a complete understanding of your rights and responsibilities.
