Employee vs. Employer Contributions
The account in the National Auto Group Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan & Trust likely includes employee salary deferrals and employer match or profit-sharing contributions. In divorce, it’s important to determine whether your share includes only the marital portion of the employee contributions, or both employee and employer amounts.
Employer contributions often come with vesting schedules. If a portion of the account isn’t yet vested, it may not be eligible for division, or it may revert to the plan participant if they leave the company before the vesting period ends. Your QDRO should clearly address how any unvested amounts are treated—if not, you could end up with less than expected.
