Coverdell Education Account

Education Savings Account

An investment tool created for the purpose of paying for the future cost of a child's education. The plan allows total after-tax contributions of $2,000.00 per year for each child until they reach the age of 18. These contributions and their subsequent earnings are tax-free when withdrawn to pay for qualified education expenses. A Share Savings or 18 month Share Certificate account specifically for the benefit of a person's education - usually a minor. Maximum contribution is $2,000.00 annually.

Eligible Members:

• Children, grandchildren and stepchildren
• Brothers, sisters, stepbrothers and stepsisters
• Nephews and nieces
• Parents, stepparents and grandparents
• Uncles and aunts
• Spouses of all the family members listed above
• Cousins

It's important to remember that even with this extended range of family members, contributions can be made only for those under the age of 18, unless the beneficiary is a special needs beneficiary.
