            The marriage requirement for a divorced spouse annuity is met if your marriage ended by a final divorce decree and:

you were legally married to the railroad employee for at least 10 consecutive years immediately preceding the date of your final divorce decree; and,
	you are divorced from that railroad employee; and,
	you are not currently married to anyone. (If you remarried after the divorce from the employee, the later marriage must have terminated.)
