South Dakota's higher education savings plan law references federal tax rules under the Internal Revenue Code to determine how these accounts operate. This bill updates that reference to align with current federal law, ensuring the state's savings plan regulations stay consistent with the latest federal tax requirements for education accounts.
The amendment updated the Internal Revenue Code reference date from January 1, 2025 to January 1, 2026 in the higher education savings plan statute. This is a technical update to ensure the law continues to reference current federal tax law as it evolves.
