There is no hard and fast rule how long a divorce should take. The Qdro is a long and complicated document and often requires several drafts until the pension plan accepts it.

The primary issues I gather are resolved and it is just a matter of putting them down on paper. I would have your attorney call the Court to see what the delay is or at least find out where in the order of preparing the paperwork your case is.
