AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Application Fees as Eligible Expenses Act" or "Application FEES Act," amends Section 529(e)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to allow funds from a 529 plan, which are typically used for qualified education expenses like tuition and room and board, to also cover fees required for an individual applying for admission to an eligible higher education institution. This change, effective for distributions made after the bill is enacted, expands the types of educational expenses that can be paid for tax-free using these savings plans.
