Is there a contribution limit to Florida's 529 plans for 2024? Is there one that stands out from another?

529 contribution limits are set by each state plan and generally apply a total account limit per beneficiary. They range from $235,000 to $575,000. You also might trigger the gift tax if you contribute more than $18,000 to a 529 account or multiple accounts with the same beneficiary in 2024. For Florida, the max limit is $418,000.

 

Some of the key things to look for in a 529 plan: 

  1. State tax benefits. First, see what tax breaks your state offers for qualified higher-education expenses. 
  2. Fees & cost. The less you pay in fees and costs, the more you'll have left to pay for college.
  3. Investment choices. 
  4. Initial investment amount.
