My dad had a 401k plan when he passed away. His wife was the primary beneficiary and his 3 sons were listed as the contingent beneficiaries. 1 year after my dad passed (account owner), his wife also passed away. Does the 401k now go to the contingent beneficiaries or does it have to go through probate?
