This Financial Harvest whitepaper discusses benefits of a 529 plan, comparison to Florida Prepaid Plan, & impact of SECURE Act 2.0.
Education is often one of the most impactful investments a parent, stepparent, grandparent, or other family member makes in a child’s future. Strategic planning to cover the cost of educational experiences means more choices and potentially less stress for everyone involved.
A 529 tax-advantaged savings plan is designed to help families save for education expenses. These plans are named after Section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Money assigned to a 529 plan can be used for tuition and other qualified educational expenses, including, but not limited to, fees, books, and room and board.
The use of a 529 plan, where contributions grow tax-free, is not restricted to traditional colleges or universities. A 529 plan can, in many situations, be applied to vocational training, elementary and secondary education tuition, foreign education, and other approved avenues of learning.
“You won’t owe any taxes on the earnings in a 529 Plan as long as the funds are used for qualified education expenses.”
