I got divorced in 2007 - at that time, my ex-wife was awarded 50% of my 401K. A QDRO was done stating this. She never took the money out - the Plan never divided the money, I even got a loan from the 401k twice (which I should not have been able to do before they split the money). The loans have been paid back. Fast forward to 2017, she is wanting the money and is unfortunately, not using a QDRO lawyer, just a divorce lawyer, so she keeps writing the Order wrong to the Plan Administrators.
The first time the Plan Administrators told her the Order must clearly specify whether loans are included in the participants account balance prior to any calculations and to submit an amended draft or court-filled QDRO . The lawyer answered that wrong.
Second time, they asked for historical statements issued by the previous plan administrators and provide an amended QDRO containing a specified dollar amount to be awarded. Unfortunately, that was in 2000 and the previous plan says they don't have that info.
Her answer is to sue me - a Motion to Modify Postdivorce Domestic Relations Order. Anybody have an idea how to respond to this? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
