Extractions: Arkansas Introduces State Tax Deduction For Gift College Investing Plan SM Arkansas taxpayers are eligible for a $5,000 deduction when contributing to state's 529 college savings program Little Rock, AR - The Arkansas 529 Plan Review Committee, sponsor of The GIFT College Investing Plan, announced a new state income tax deduction eligible to Arkansas taxpayers who contribute to The GIFT College Investing Plan. This new benefit to residents of the state is the result of Act 1973 filed by Sen. Gilbert Baker and signed by Gov. Mike Huckabee. The new law gives Arkansas taxpayers the opportunity to make deductions up to $5,000 per year when making contributions to the GIFT Plan. For example, a married couple who each contribute $5,000 to a GIFT Plan account can each deduct $5,000 from their Arkansas taxable income, for a total household deduction of $10,000 per year. The new law applies to contributions made on or after January 1, 2005. The GIFT Plan also provides tax-deferred growth of earnings, and withdrawals from the Plan for qualified higher education expenses are currently tax-free.* More information on the GIFT Plan is available at www.thegiftplan.com or by calling (800) 587-7301.
