US Treasury Proposes Employer Contributions to Trump Accounts for Children's Savings
The US Treasury and IRS have proposed rules allowing employers to contribute up to $2,500 tax-free annually to Trump Accounts, government-backed savings plans for children. These accounts, aimed at helping families build long-term wealth, also permit employees to make pre-tax contributions. The guidance, still subject to public comment and hearings, outlines employer responsibilities such as verifying beneficiary eligibility and reporting contributions. The program targets children born between 2025 and 2028, with an initial $1,000 government contribution under a pilot initiative.
