How does the timing of the QDRO submission affect retirement asset division?
The timing of QDRO submission is crucial as delays can affect the division process and the value of assets to be divided. Submitting the QDRO promptly after the divorce decree ensures the division occurs as close as possible to the agreed date, minimizing potential fluctuations in the account value. For instance, a delay in submitting the QDRO for a 401(k) could result in significant changes in the account balance due to market variations.
