Employee vs. Employer Contributions
In most 401(k) plans, contributions come from two sources: the employee (deferrals from salary) and the employer (matching or profit-sharing). During a divorce, both kinds of contributions may be divisible—but the employer portion is often subject to vesting schedules that limit the amount the employee fully “owns.”
If the plan participant in the Consolidated Medical Bio-analy 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan & Trust is not fully vested, the alternate payee may not be entitled to the unvested portions. A well-drafted QDRO should clarify how to handle unvested funds or potential future vesting.
