Treasury Issues Guidance On Trump Accounts

The Treasury Department and IRS are issuing guidelines for the new tax-deferred "Trump accounts", created by a July law to seed $1,000 accounts for U.S.-born children. The program covers children born Jan. 1, 2025–Dec. 31, 2028, uses IRS Form 4547 for enrollment with federal deposits beginning May 2026, and includes Dell's $6.25 billion donation seeding $250 for eligible 2016–2024 births.
Key Points
- 1Establishes $1,000 tax-deferred accounts for US children born Jan 1, 2025–Dec 31, 2028, managed by parents.
- 2Limits withdrawals until age 18 with broader control at 30; investments restricted to low-cost US index funds.
- 3Requires new IRS Form 4547 and May 2026 authentication; employers can contribute up to $2,500 annually.
