Bill Summary

This Act will allow Delaware residents two new deductions from personal income tax. The first is a deduction from taxable income of up to $1,000 for contributions to an account in a Delaware-sponsored qualified tuition program, as that term is defined under 26 U.S.C. § 529 (a 529 College Savings Plan). The second is a deduction from taxable income of up to $5,000 for contributions to an account in a Delaware-sponsored ABLE program, as that term is defined under 26 U.S.C. § 529A (a 529A Savings Account - a special account for meeting the needs of certain individuals with disabilities). The 529 and 529A deduction is only applicable to the Delaware-sponsored plan. A transfer or rollover from another account authorized under 26 U.S.C. §§ 529 and 529A or for a change in beneficiary of any such account does not qualify for the deduction.

AI Summary

This bill will allow Delaware residents to deduct up to $1,000 from their personal income tax for contributions to a Delaware-sponsored 529 College Savings Plan, and up to $5,000 for contributions to a Delaware-sponsored ABLE account (a special savings account for certain individuals with disabilities). These deductions only apply to the Delaware-sponsored plans and not to transfers or rollovers from other accounts. The bill will take effect for contributions made after December 31, 2021.
