What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WA
I been employed under a TN visa for almost 4 years on an american company. When I was employed I was offered a 401(k) with a company match and additionally a pension plan of 3% of my salary. Today me and all "non-resident aliens" employees were informed that they had an internal error and that they were not allowed to provide us such plan because they were not following the company plan document. So all company match money will be deducted from our accounts, we will no longer have a 401(k) and a check of our contributions will be mailed to us. I am losing about 6% of my future income and about 12k of company match.
Is it legal to do this without compensating the money we lost? Wouldt it be discriminatory to provide 401k only to US citizens?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
