*Earnings within a 529 plan aren’t subject to federal tax and generally aren’t subject to state tax when used to pay for qualified education expenses. Some states provide tax deductions or credits to employees for 529 contributions, and some states provide employers with tax credits for matching 529 contributions. Since state tax treatment of 529 plans varies by state, users should consult their tax advisor about state and local taxes.
