Now Federal Law

What Is a 530A Trump Account?

Enacted July 4, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21) and codified at IRC §530A and §6434. Here's what it actually is.

Custodial Traditional IRA

A new tax-deferred IRA for U.S. citizen children under 18 with a valid SSN. Converts to a standard traditional IRA at age 18.

$1,000 Federal Seed (§6434)

A one-time Treasury contribution for eligible children born Jan 1, 2025 – Dec 31, 2028. Parents elect via IRS Form 4547.

$5,000 Annual Cap

Aggregate yearly contribution limit (inflation-adjusted after 2027). Employers may add up to $2,500/yr. Cash contributions begin July 4, 2026.

530A Trump Accounts are a new category of tax-deferred custodial traditional IRAs for American children. They were established by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (Public Law 119-21), which was signed into law on July 4, 2025, and are codified under Internal Revenue Code Sections 530A and 6434.

Who qualifies

  • U.S. citizen children under age 18
  • Must have a valid Social Security Number
  • One account per child (initial or rollover)
  • $1,000 seed: U.S. citizen born 2025–2028, meets IRC §152(c) "qualifying child" definition

Contribution rules

  • $5,000 aggregate annual cap per child (indexed after 2027)
  • Employers: up to $2,500/yr, excluded from employee income
  • Government/nonprofit contributions don't count toward the cap
  • Cash only; contributions start July 4, 2026

How it's invested

  • Funds held in mutual funds or ETFs that track a U.S. stock index (e.g., S&P 500)
  • Cannot be a SIMPLE IRA or accept SEP contributions
  • Accounts opened via IRS Form 4547

Withdrawals

  • Growth period (pre-18): no distributions except rollovers, excess-contribution corrections, or beneficiary's death
  • Age 18+: standard traditional-IRA rules apply
  • 10% early-withdrawal penalty before 59½ (usual IRA exceptions apply)

Individual contributions are after-tax (non-deductible) and create basis. Employer, government and nonprofit contributions do not create basis and are fully taxable on withdrawal. Implementation details are still rolling out — see IRS Notice 2025-68 and subsequent Treasury guidance.
