Changed jobs mid-last year and received a full disbursement of my 401k. Going through tax filings for 2017, I just found out that my 401k balance is not at zero, but rather several thousand dollars. As near as I can tell, they went from matching employee contributions to profit sharing after I left. The amount that's currently there is from two large contributions made in Oct 2017 and in Jan 2018, both well after I was no longer employed.
Obviously I'll be calling the plan admin first to hear what they have to say, and I'm just assuming that money is not mine. This employer has had a history of not knowing which way is up when it comes to accounting and payroll.
What typically happens in this case? Will this affect my filling for the 2017 tax year?
