1. Dividing Employee and Employer Contributions
This plan likely includes both employee deferrals (money the employee contributed from their paycheck) and employer contributions (amounts contributed by K & k interiors, Inc.. 401(k) profit sharing plan). In a divorce, the QDRO can cover both types, but careful consideration must be given to:
- When the contributions were made
- Whether the contributions occurred during the marriage
- How to treat earnings and losses after the date of separation
It’s common to divide just the marital portion, which may include account balances from the marriage date through the date of separation or divorce judgment.
