1. Employee vs. Employer Contributions
When dividing a 401(k) plan, contributions made by the employee (the participant) are typically 100% vested immediately. However, contributions made by the employer may be subject to a vesting schedule. This is especially important in a plan like the Cw Solutions, LLC 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan which combines profit sharing and employee deferrals.
You may only be entitled to part of the employer’s contributions depending on how long the participant has worked for the company. The QDRO needs to clearly state whether it includes only vested amounts or some portion of unvested amounts, if allowed.
