Employee and Employer Contributions
In a 401(k), both the employee and their employer typically contribute to the account. The Legacy Home Health Care, Inc.. 401(k) Plan likely follows this structure. When dividing the account, you can choose a percentage split, dollar amount, or a division based on contributions made during the marriage only.
It’s important to specify whether the QDRO applies to:
- Just the employee contributions
- Employer matching contributions
- Investment earnings and losses up to the date of distribution
Most QDROs cover all contributions and related gains or losses up to the division date, but it’s vital to state that explicitly.
