Splitting Retirement Benefits: Your Guide to QDROs for the 3mg Roofing and Solar 401(k) Plan

If you’re in the middle of a divorce and you or your spouse has a retirement account through work, chances are you’ll need something called a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO). If that account happens to be the 3mg Roofing and Solar 401(k) Plan sponsored by 3mg solutions, LLC, there are some important things you need to know before you divide that asset.

QDROs are legal orders that allow for the division of certain types of retirement accounts—like 401(k)s—without triggering early withdrawal penalties or taxes (as long as the funds are moved appropriately). Getting a QDRO done right is especially important when employer contributions, loan balances, and Roth subaccounts are involved—as is common with 401(k) plans.

This article focuses specifically on the 3mg Roofing and Solar 401(k) Plan. Here’s what we know about the plan:

• Plan Name: 3mg Roofing and Solar 401(k) Plan
• Sponsor: 3mg solutions, LLC
• Address: 20250717144308NAL0000475681001, 2024-01-01, 3mg solutions, LLC
• Plan Type: 401(k) defined contribution plan
• Industry: General Business
• Organization Type: Business Entity
• Status: Active
• Participants, EIN, Plan Number, and Asset Values: Unknown (must be obtained for the QDRO process)

Without the EIN or plan number, a QDRO cannot be submitted to the administrator. Be sure your attorney or QDRO preparer obtains these details before drafting the order.

The biggest mistake we see is people thinking they can just mention the 401(k) division in their divorce judgment and be done. That’s not how it works. A QDRO is a separate court order that must be written to meet both federal law and the specific requirements of the 3mg Roofing and Solar 401(k) Plan administrator.

At PeacockQDROs, we’ve completed many QDROs from start to finish. That means we don’t just write the document and hand it off for you to figure out. We handle drafting, preapproval (when applicable), court filing, submission, and administrative follow-up. That sets us apart from document-only services.Learn more about our full-service approach here.

Plans sponsored by small business entities—like 3mg solutions, LLC in this case—may not follow the same rigid administrative processes as larger corporations. This can be both a benefit and a risk. On the one hand, you may be able to get questions answered quickly through their HR department. On the other, smaller or third-party administrators may not have clear QDRO review procedures in place—and without that, your order might sit idle.

We always recommend pre-submitting QDROs for approval before you file in court, especially with business entity plans.Learn what else affects your QDRO timeline here.

To start the QDRO process for the 3mg Roofing and Solar 401(k) Plan, you’ll need the following documentation:

• A copy of the most recent account statement showing balances and loan info
• Vesting details for employer contributions
• Subaccount details (Traditional vs. Roth)
• The full legal name of the plan: 3mg Roofing and Solar 401(k) Plan
• The name of the plan sponsor: 3mg solutions, LLC
• The plan’s EIN and plan number (usually found on the SPD or Form 5500)

If you don’t have the plan number and EIN yet, they can be located by requesting the plan’s Summary Plan Description (SPD) or by searching public DOL filings. These are critical pieces of information that must be included in the QDRO.
