State Farm College Savings Plan (529)

Earnings must be used to pay for qualified higher education expenses to be federally tax free. The earnings portion of a non qualified withdrawal will be subject to ordinary income tax at the recipient’s marginal rate and subject to a 10% penalty. State Farm does not provide tax advice. Please consult your tax advisor for specific information about your tax situation, including any state tax consequences of an investment. The availability of such tax or other benefits may be conditioned on meeting certain requirements.

A $65,000 gift is viewed as an accelerated gift over five years. Any other gifts to the same beneficiary by the contributor in that tax year or in any of the succeeding four years may result in a federal gift-tax liability. If the contributor dies within the five-year period, a prorated portion of the contribution may be included in his or her taxable estate.

This limit is set by the Nebraska State Treasurer and is subject to change. Contributions can be made until the value or total amount of contributions for the beneficiary reaches $360,000.
