Discover how 529 education savings plans integrate with estate planning to fund education, reduce taxable estates, and maximize tax benefits for your family'...
You can contribute up to $19,000 per beneficiary per year without triggering gift taxes. Additionally, 529 plans offer a unique "superfunding" option where you can contribute five years' worth of annual exclusions upfront and elect to treat it as if made over five years. This removes a substantial amount from your taxable estate immediately while maintaining control over the account and the ability to change beneficiaries if circumstances change.
