1. Allocating Employee vs. Employer Contributions
In 401(k) plans like the Bonded Logic, Inc.. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, contributions generally come from both the employee (participant) and the employer. It’s important to determine whether employer contributions are fully vested before division. Many plans have specific vesting schedules, and non-vested amounts may not be divisible in divorce.
For example, if only 60% of the employer match is vested, only that portion should be included in the QDRO. The rest may be forfeited if the employee leaves the company before full vesting.
