Everything you need to know…

🔴 Key Features of MAGA Savings Accounts:

The federal government would deposit $1,000 into a tax-advantaged savings account for each eligible child. The funds are intended to grow through investments, potentially in U.S. equities, until the child reaches 18.

  • Contributions: Parents, relatives, friends, or employers can contribute up to $5,000 annually per child using after-tax dollars. These contributions grow tax-deferred, but withdrawals are subject to capital gains tax.

🔴 Usage Restrictions:

  • Funds cannot be accessed until the child turns 18.
  • At 18, up to 50% of the funds can be withdrawn for specific purposes: higher education, training programs, small business loans, or first-time home purchases.
  • At 25, the account holder can withdraw the full balance, but only for the same limited purposes.

🔴 Tax Benefits:

The accounts are described as “exempt from taxation” in some sources, implying tax-free growth on investments, though withdrawals may incur capital gains tax. The structure resembles a Roth IRA or 529 plan but with unique restrictions.

🔴 BABY SAVINGS ACCOUNTS :
For Babies born before Jan 1, 2024, under 8 years old, with at least 1 parent with valid SS number.
Like 401K for kids. $5,000 per year can be put into the account with full access at age 30. Great way to give kids a good start in life. Helps parents think again about having more children since financial security big reason they don’t.

🔴 Eligibility

To qualify for a MAGA Savings Account, a child must meet the following requirements:

  1. U.S. Citizenship: The child must be a U.S. citizen “at birth.”
  2. Social Security Number (SSN): The child must have an SSN, and at least one parent (or the taxpayer claiming the child as a dependent) must provide a work-eligible SSN. If the parent is married, their spouse may also need a work-eligible SSN.
  3. Birth Date: The program applies to children born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028, as part of a pilot program. Some sources mention an age cap, typically children under 8 years old at the program’s start (January 1, 2026), though this varies across drafts.
  4. Parental Option: Parents can accept or decline the account for their child.
