What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
I am vested in my company's 401k plan. I am 59 years old and my company's literature states it matches 25 % of up to 15% of salary. ( Total yearly salary is in the $50,000 range.)
Since I am over 50 yrs. of age and I believe entitled to a "catch up" provision of $5,000 for calendar year 2006. Does my company have to match the total of the 15% of my salary that I contribute to the 401k plan and the additional $5,000 I contribute ?
(I believe the literature leaves out any mention of the additional "catch up' provision since it would complicate the issue since most of the employees are much younger.)
Thank you in advance for your comments.
