Absolutely. The easiest way to calculate the community value of a 401k or Any pension plan is with an actuary. They are inexpensive and very fast.

Have you filed for divorce? If not you would have to file for divorce and in discovery you can request the information from the company that runs the 401k.

Absolutely. It's community's money and you have a right to be informed of your finances.

Absent a prenuptial agreement, income contributed to a 401K during marriage is community property. During marriage, the discussion is between you and your husband (and I would question a spouse who keeps financial information secret). Part of the prerequisites in a divorce action is a full and complete disclosure of all assets and debts.
