529 plans are state-sponsored investment programs that are designed to help you meet your higher education goals. So if you want to help pay for your child’s college tuition or even the tuition of another family member, 529 plans can help.
While the IRS sets no specific 529 plan annual contribution limits, states generally limit the total balance within an account to the estimated cost of the beneficiary’s qualified educational expenses. Each state also limits the amount of annual contributions that qualify for tax breaks.1
There are two types of 529 plans: education savings plans and prepaid plans.
Under either plan, if the child you originally started the plan for doesn’t go to college, you can use the plan for another child or even to further your own education.
By offering a range of benefits including attractive tax advantages and flexible investment options, 529 plans can help you save for tuition and even room and board.
