Notification of Divorce and Division Instructions

Transcription

1 Notification of Divorce and Division Instructions Annuities are issued by Pruco Life Insurance Company, Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey, The Prudential Insurance Company of America (PICA) and Prudential Annuities Life Assurance Corporation (PALAC) (these entities are referred to as Prudential below). All are Prudential Financial, Inc. companies and each is solely responsible for its own financial condition and obligations. The Rock Prudential Logo is a registered service mark of PICA and its affiliates. This form is not for use with divorce proceedings in Ohio; a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) is required in order to make withdrawals or changes. If you reside in OH do not use this form. To process a withdrawal the Annuity Withdrawal Request for Partial & Full Surrender Form is required (for a transfer of assets, include a Letter of Acceptance from the Receiving Company). An Annuity Change Form is required to complete an Ownership change to a former spouse. The purpose of this form is to facilitate the transfer, distribution, or change of ownership of a Prudential deferred annuity and to facilitate the distribution of an immediate annuity as a result of divorce proceedings. This form is required by Prudential in lieu of a Divorce Decree/Property Settlement Agreement/Qualified Domestic Relations Order and such documentation should not be submitted with this form. When this form and all additional requirements have been deemed by Prudential to be in good order, the contract specified below will be divided pursuant to the instructions contained herein. If the terms of the divorce decree or judgement conflict with the Prudential contract, the contract rules will preside and the transaction will not be processed according to your request. Instructions: You may be required to attach additional documentation as stated in this form. All information must be typed or printed using blue or black ink. A separate Notification of Divorce & Division Instructions form must be submitted for each Prudential contract to be divided. On these pages, I, you and your refer to the contract owner(s).

Not for use with PruSecure Fixed Indexed Annuity contracts. For Federal tax purposes, the term spouse includes any individuals who are lawfully married under state law. Federal law does not recognize domestic partnerships or civil unions that are not designated as married under state law. Therefore, we cannot permit a civil union partner or domestic partner who is not recognized under state law as married to continue the annuity within the meaning of the tax law under the annuity s spousal continuance provision. An alternative distribution option referred to as Taxable Contract Continuation is available to domestic partners and civil unions.

If the amount you selected is less, we will withhold the required default amount. Your withdrawal may also be subject to State income tax withholding in certain states.

6 IMPORTANT NOTICES: For GMWB, the Protected Value is determined as of the date you make your first withdrawal under your Annuity following your election of the benefit. For the LT5, HD5 and HD7 benefit suites: The Protected Withdrawal Value (PWV) is determined as of the date you make your first withdrawal under the Annuity following your election of the benefit. For the HD7 Plus, HD6 Plus, or HDI, HDI 2.0, HDI v2.1, or HDI v3.0 benefit suites: The PWV is determined at the time of first Lifetime Withdrawal under the Annuity. A systematic withdrawal cannot be taken as a Non-Lifetime withdrawal and all systematic withdrawals will be treated as Lifetime Withdrawals under these benefits. If a post-withdrawal step up occurs and you wish to withdraw the higher AIA through a Systematic Withdrawal program, you must either complete a new Systematic Withdrawal form or call our Annuities Service Center. Withdrawals are subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Annuity, including any applicable CDSC and MVA. Withdrawals made while the benefit is in effect will be treated, for tax purposes, in the same way as any other withdrawals under the Annuity. If you have a benefit and are taking withdrawals pro-rata, these withdrawals will be taken from all sub-accounts (including the AST Investment Grade Bond Sub-account or Benefit Fixed Rate Account as applicable) and the DCA Options, including any 6 or 12 month DCA Program you may be participating in. Withdrawals from an MVA Option more than 30 days prior to the end of the Guarantee Period will be subject to a Market Value Adjustment, which can either increase or decrease your Account Value. Please refer to your current prospectus for further details. You may change your systematic withdrawal or cancel enrollment at any time by submitting a new form or by calling our Annuities Service Center. Please note that we may discontinue the enrollment feature if the contract fund falls below the contractual minimum. The contract fund may fall below the minimum due to fund performance or a systematic withdrawal distribution. We will notify you if your withdrawal request is less than the minimum withdrawal allowed. Excess Withdrawals An excess withdrawal refers to a withdrawal that (i) exceeds your AIA or your AWA (for LT5) and (ii) is not a required minimum distribution calculated by Prudential and distributed under a program that we administer. If you take an excess withdrawal, it proportionally reduces your AIA or AWA (for LT5) and will result in a permanent reduction to your AIA or AWA (for LT5) available in current and future Annuity Years. Excess withdrawals will proportionally reduce the future PWV amount. If you would like to make an excess withdrawal and are uncertain how an excess withdrawal will reduce your future AIA or AWA (for LT5), then you may contact us prior to requesting the withdrawal to obtain a personalized, transaction-specific calculation showing the effect of the excess withdrawal. GMWB: Cumulative withdrawals (including applicable CDSC and/or MVA) in any Annuity Year that exceed the PAWA trigger a proportional adjustment to both the Protected Value and PAWA. Additionally, if you take a withdrawal in excess of your PAWA it will result in a permanent reduction to your PAWA for current and future Annuity Years. For Contracts Enrolled In A Systematic Withdrawal Program: Any partial withdrawals taken while a Systematic Withdrawal program is in effect may cause you to exceed your AIA, AWA, or PAWA. If the combination of the requested partial withdrawal and your systematic withdrawal program will result in you exceeding your AIA, AWA, or PAWA for the current year, your systematic withdrawal program will be cancelled. In addition, each systematic withdrawal you take that is an excess withdrawal will proportionally reduce your AIA, AWA (for LT5) or PAWA (for GMWB) and will further reduce the value of your benefit, including a permanent reduction to your AIA, AWA (for LT5) or PAWA (for GMWB) available in current and future Annuity Years. Please monitor your AIA, AWA (for LT5) or PAWA (for GMWB) carefully and review your Systematic Withdrawal program prior to taking partial withdrawals. Gross amount vs. net amount election: When a withdrawal that is subject to a CDSC and/or tax withholding, we use not only the amount you actually receive, but also the amount of the CDSC and/or tax withholding, to determine whether your withdrawal is an excess withdrawal. You may request a gross withdrawal amount and have any CDSC and/or tax withholding deducted from the amount you actually receive or a net withdrawal amount and have any CDSC and/or tax withholding deducted from your remaining Unadjusted Account Value. The portion of a withdrawal that exceeds your AIA (or AWA for LT5, PAWA for GMWB) would be considered an excess withdrawal. Although an MVA may also be applied to your remaining Unadjusted Account Value, it is not considered for purposes of determining an excess withdrawal (excluding GMWB). Charge Free Amount: If you participate in a benefit and take a withdrawal, you should be aware of how the withdrawal could affect the guaranteed values (AIA/AWA or PAWA) under the benefit and whether the withdrawal is subject to a CDSC. A withdrawal can be within your free withdrawal amount provision (for purposes of not incurring a CDSC) yet also be in excess of the AIA/AWA or PAWA. In that scenario, the withdrawal would be deemed Excess Income - thereby resulting in a permanent reduction to the AIA available to you in current and future years. Excluding LT5 and GMWB, if your withdrawal does not exceed the AIA, it will not be subject to a CDSC, even if the withdrawal exceeds the free withdrawal amount. ORD Ed. 6/18 p6 of 11

You may wish to consult with a tax or legal advisor because neither we nor our representatives can provide tax or legal advice. Federal and state income tax withholding. Federal and some state tax laws require us to withhold income taxes from certain cash payments unless you elect out of withholding and in certain other circumstances. We are required to withhold federal income taxes and certain state income taxes from the taxable portion of any withdrawal from a non-qualified annuity, an IRA, a Roth IRA, a Section 403(b) tax-deferred annuity, or a Section 401(a) qualified plan. If your withdrawal is from a Section 403(b) tax-deferred annuity or a Section 401(a) qualified plan, and is an eligible rollover distribution, you will not be able to elect out of federal income tax withholding. Federal taxes will be withheld at a 20% rate, unless you elect to have your eligible rollover distribution directly rolled over to an IRA or to another qualified plan. You will not be able to elect out of withholding if we are notified that your taxpayer identification number (TIN) is incorrect. Restrictions on IRA/Roth IRA. Funds received from the distribution of an IRA (if converted to a Roth IRA), or from a Roth IRA must be deposited into another Roth IRA within 60 days after they are received. This period may be extended to 120 days for certain rollovers relating to qualified first-time homebuyer distributions. When counting days, weekends and holidays are included. Day 1 is the day after the distribution is received. There are generally no exceptions to the 60-day rule and the IRS generally will not grant extensions. Please be advised that effective for distributions on or after January 1, 2015, the limit of one 60-day IRA to IRA rollover per 12 month period, outlined in IRC Section 408(d)(3)(B), applies on an aggregate basis to all IRAs (Traditional IRA, SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA and Roth IRA) owned by an individual, regardless of institution. This is based on a Tax Court ruling in Bobrow v. Commissioner, detailed in Announcement by the IRS. This 12 month limit does not apply to IRA to IRA transfers. Please consult your tax advisor. Rollovers made during or after the year in which the owner turns age 70 1/2, cannot be made from assets representing a required minimum distribution from an IRA, 403(b) or 401(a). Estimated tax and possible penalties. If you elect to have no income tax withheld from your withdrawal, or if you do not have enough income tax withheld from your withdrawal, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. You may be subject to IRS penalties including fines and imprisonment, if you fail to provide your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN), fail to report taxable interest or dividends on your tax return, or give false tax information. You may be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty if you are under the age of 59½. Backup withholding. You must tell us if the IRS has notified you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return. You are not subject to backup with-holding if you did not receive such a notice from the IRS, or if the IRS recently told you that you are no longer subject to a backup withholding order.

11 IMPORTANT REQUIRED INFORMATION FOR ALL NEW OWNERS USA Patriot Act Identify Information To help the government fight the funding of terrorist and money laundering activities, Federal Law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person/entity that owns an account. What this means: When a person/entity becomes the owner of an account, we will ask for the new owner s name, address, date of birth, social security number, acting trustee/officer name(s) and other information that will allow us to identify the new owner. We may also request other identifying documents necessary for verification purposes. We may verify the information provided with a national database or similar verification system. This verification process will take place as we process the change to the new person/entity. Once verification is completed, we will be able to fully service and maintain the account.
