1. Employee vs. Employer Contributions
When dividing the Eccovia Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Trust, it’s important to distinguish between:
- Employee contributions: Automatically fully vested.
- Employer profit sharing or match contributions: Often subject to a vesting schedule.
Only vested employer contributions can be divided in a QDRO. If not vested, they may be forfeited upon divorce or plan separation. Make sure to request a statement showing vested vs. unvested amounts as of your separation date.
