Employee and Employer Contributions
The Andrews Cadillac Company 401(k) Plan likely includes both employee deferrals (the portion deducted from paychecks) and employer matching or profit-sharing contributions. It’s important to note that:
- Employee contributions are almost always 100% vested.
- Employer contributions may be subject to a vesting schedule. If the employee isn’t fully vested at the time of divorce, the QDRO must account only for the vested portion.
At PeacockQDROs, we assess the vesting schedule at the date of division to ensure the alternate payee doesn’t receive more—or less—than they’re entitled to.
