What is the name of your state? DC
When I first got married in 1991 my job offered a 401k plan 6 months later. For reasons I don't care to mention, I asked my husband if he would mind signing off as the beneficiary so that my oldest son could be the beneficiary if I died. He said of course since he knew that I would be saving the money from out of my own "allowance" so to speak.
We are now divorcing and he wants half. He spent his 401k before we got deep into the divorce and his was no match for mine anyway. Is he going to get half? Does signing the beneficiary form means he signed his rights away?
