Employee and Employer Contributions
Under a 401(k) plan, participants typically contribute pre-tax income (employee contributions), and the employer may offer matching or profit-sharing contributions. When dividing the Miller’s Rental & Sales Company, Inc.. 401(k) Profit-sharing Plan, it’s vital to clarify whether the division applies only to employee contributions or also includes employer contributions.
The QDRO should specify:
- Whether the division includes contributions made after separation
- Whether to apply vesting rules to employer contributions
- How to handle future gains/losses
