Employee vs. Employer Contributions
Participants in the Quality Textile Services, Inc.. 401(k) Plan may have both employee contributions and employer matches. A QDRO should clarify:
- Whether both types of contributions are being divided
- If the division includes just gains/losses on the contributions, or on the entire account
- The valuation date that determines the portion allocated to the alternate payee
If the employer contributions are subject to a vesting schedule, you may only be entitled to the vested portion as of the divorce date or another valuation date. Make sure the QDRO matches the settlement agreement and accounts for vesting rules.
