Employee and Employer Contributions
401(k) accounts typically include both employee deferrals and employer contributions. With the Clive Daniel Home Holdings, LLC 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Trust, it’s important to know how the employer profit-sharing component is structured. Many plans vest employer contributions over time. This means only the vested portion can be divided in a QDRO. An unvested portion may be forfeited if the employee leaves before completing the vesting schedule.
Your QDRO must clearly state which contributions are being divided and how any vesting or forfeiture will be treated. Don’t assume the balance you see today is guaranteed.
