    529 Plan

    529 Plans I'm glad this question came up as I was wondering about 529 Plan funds. I know they can be transferred to a sibling if a child gains acceptance to a SA. However, I assumed there would be penalties, in addition to paying taxes, on funds that cannot be used for educational expenses...
