Employee and Employer Contributions
In a 401(k) like the Manuel Gomez Corporation 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan & Trust, the account may include employee salary deferrals, employer matching contributions, and possibly profit-sharing components. A QDRO can direct the division of:
- Total account balance as of a specific date
- Only employee contributions (excluding employer contributions)
- Only vested account portions
You’ll need a clear strategy with your attorney or financial advisor if you want to include or exclude specific contribution types.
