Sec.  222.1  Introduction.


    This part sets forth and describes the family relationships that may 
make a claimant eligible for an annuity or lump-sum payment under the 
Railroad Retirement Act and furnishes the basic rules for determining 
when those relationships exist. Such relationships may result from a 
current or terminated marriage or through birth, death or adoption. 
Other relevant relationships are having a child in care, dependency or 
lack of it, contributing to support, living in the same household, and 
being under court order to contribute to support.
