With KY Saves 529, you maintain control over your account. Always. Even after the child you’re saving for turns 18.

  • You choose how you want your money invested. KY Saves 529 has a broad range of investment options. Not investment savvy? Consider a Year of Enrollment Option – it will automatically adjust your investments as your child grows.
  • You determine when to withdraw the funds. First semester, last semester, and every semester in between. Even wait for grad school, if you choose.
  • You decide which qualified expenses to use the funds for. Remember: 529s cover a variety of education expenses.
  • You make the call if funds can’t be used for qualified expenses. Scholarships do happen, though not as often as you might like. If your beneficiary can’t use the funds for qualified expenses, simply change the beneficiary to another qualified family member or withdraw it and pay taxes on earnings and a 10% penalty.1  
  • You decide what to do with any funds left in your account. If your funds are no longer needed for education, you can rollover your 529 savings into an IRA.2
