Financial Planning, Wealth & Tax Advisory

How do I prove that a 529 distribution request is for college expenses and not some other purpose?

All 529 plans have procedures to ensure that a withdrawal is
being used for the beneficiary’s qualified education
expenses. Most plans will send a check directly to
the educational institution. Others may send a check to you that you can then forward to the college.
Your plan administrator can tell you what procedures you must follow when
requesting a distribution.
