Plans like attainable are managed by states or entities like MEFA and some, but not all may require an account owner to complete a form to certify that they’re eligible for the increased contribution as long as account owners stay eligible. Contributions may be made each year through the end of 2025 when the provision is [00:01:00] set to expire.
