What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CT
I have not worked for my previous employer for almost 2 years. My 401 K was still being held in the same financial agency for that time.
About 10 months ago the previous company was sold. All the 401K holdings were frozen until the sale was finalized (I think) We were all instructed at that time to designate where the money should go, ie: new employer plan, Bank IRA etc,....I did this.
U have called twice to find out why I have not received my check via mail (I am putting it into an IRA) and have only recieved the answer that it is still in holding by the Government?
Can anyone tell me the process when one company is sold to anouther and what happens to the 401K plans. And if I am unable to retrive it is it still being invested and utilized? I was told that the valu of the 401K could change because it is still active.
Forgive me for my ignorance, I only know basics about 401k plans but to me it seems like an aweful long time to hold ones money, and I am even more ervous that what I did have is being wasted down while I am unable to retrive it and put it safely into an IRA.
I hope my question makes sense.
