Employee and Employer Contributions
401(k) accounts include both employee salary deferrals and employer contributions. In plans such as the Turnkey Construction & Maintenance, Inc.. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, the employer may also make matching or discretionary contributions.
Employer contributions are often subject to a vesting schedule. This means not all of the employer-funded portion is considered marital property unless the employee is fully vested. Any unvested portion is typically excluded from division—but this must be handled carefully in the QDRO language.
