This bill would make several tax benefits for ABLE accounts permanent. ABLE accounts are savings accounts for people with disabilities that can be used to help pay for qualified expenses without losing certain public benefits. The bill would keep higher yearly contribution limits in place, let people use ABLE contributions for the saver’s credit, and allow money to be moved from a 529 education savings account into an ABLE account on an ongoing basis instead of only for a limited time.

  • It would permanently extend the higher amount people can contribute to ABLE accounts each year.
  • It would allow contributions to an ABLE account to count toward the retirement savings credit, which could lower a person’s tax bill if they qualify.
  • It would permanently continue the option to roll over money from a 529 plan into an ABLE account.
  • It would remove a conflicting change made by a previous law so the tax rules work together more clearly.
