Genuine Learning Blog: Proposed Ethics Interpretation: 529 Plans

| , ,

The AICPA has proposed changes to the independence guidance for 529 plans. The original interpretations has deemed 529 plans to be direct financial interests. Due to changes in how plans are run and the types of plans, PEEC has reconsidered this position and is now proposing treating 529 savings plans as indirect financial interests. Comments are due October 30th.
