Employee and Employer Contributions
The Klein Hornig Llp 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan & Tr likely includes both employee deferrals and employer-matching or profit-sharing contributions. These two parts are treated differently:
- Employee Deferrals: Fully vested and dividable via QDRO.
- Employer Contributions: May be subject to vesting schedules.
If the employee spouse isn’t fully vested yet, some employer contributions may be forfeited. This can affect what the alternate payee receives. It’s critical to confirm the participant’s vesting percentage before drafting the QDRO.
