Employer Contributions and Vesting
If a portion of the Enjoy Home Care LLC 401(k) Plan includes employer contributions, those may be subject to a vesting schedule. This means the employee only ‘owns’ those contributions after working a certain number of years. When dividing the account, it’s important to:
- Identify what portion of the account is fully vested as of the QDRO valuation date.
- Exclude unvested employer contributions unless the employee later meets the vesting requirement (less common, but it can be addressed in the order).
Failing to address vesting properly could result in the former spouse receiving less than expected—or possibly nothing at all.
