Employee vs. Employer Contributions
Dividing the Community Solutions 403(b) Plan may involve both employee salary deferrals and employer matches. While employee contributions are usually 100% vested immediately, employer contributions often follow a vesting schedule. That means some portion of the employer-funded balance may be forfeited if the employee does not remain employed long enough to become fully vested.
A proper QDRO should specify how to treat unvested funds. For example, will the alternate payee only receive vested amounts as of the date of divorce? Or should the order contemplate future vesting? These are critical decisions to clarify in the drafting process.
