TAX ADVANTAGES

Special State Tax Credit

Only available to Indiana529 savers, Indiana taxpayers may be eligible for a state income tax credit equal to 20% of their contributions to an Indiana529 plan account, up to $1,500 per year ($750 for married filing separately).1 Third party contributors like grandparents, godparents, or other family and friends who are also Indiana taxpayers may also be eligible for the tax credit for contributions to your account!

FLEXIBILITY

For whatever path they’re on

Indiana529 savings can be used at any eligible higher education institution in the country or abroad, including 2- and 4-year colleges, graduate schools, vocational/technical schools, and even registered apprenticeships. And it’s not just for tuition! Savings can be used for a variety of qualified education expenses, including tuition, fees, certain room & board costs, computers, and course-related software.

1This credit may be subject to recapture from the account owner (not the contributor) in certain circumstances, such as rollovers to another state's 529 plan, federal nonqualified withdrawals, withdrawals used to pay elementary or secondary school tuition for a school outside of Indiana, education loan repayments, or rollovers to a Roth IRA account, as described in the Disclosure Booklet.

Community

Spread the word
about education savings.

Throughout your community, the value of education continues to rise. And so does the cost.

Helping families keep higher education within reach is the goal of Indiana529 Direct. Here's how you can join us:

  • Talk to friends, family and neighbors about saving for education. The majority of 529 savers report hearing about their state's program from conversations with loved ones.
  • Team up with your Institutional Relationship Manager. Ask us to join you at workshops, community fairs, and other events you or your organization is supporting.
  • Take advantage of our downloadable Resources. These free materials make discussing Indiana529 Direct even easier.
