The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of Education (DOE) have an interesting relationship that can go both ways. As we discussed here, if you get a tax return late, you are liable for a late penalty.
If you don’t pay the penalty you pay a fine. And in the case of the IRS, if you don’t pay the penalty, you are forced to pay a fine. That’s where the distinction between the IRS and the Department of Education comes in. The IRS is run by the Treasury Department, while the Department of Education is run by the Education Department. Both are funded by the IRS.
The Department of Education is run by the Secretary of Education, Betsy Devos. The Treasurer of the Treasury, Steven Mnuchin, is the Secretary of the Treasury, but he has no direct control over the Dept. of Education. That is where things become complicated. The IRS has a list of which colleges and universities get their funding. And as we discussed here, the IRS has a list of which students can borrow money from the government.
So, for example, the money for the 529 plan is used to pay for college. But some of the money is earmarked for other purposes. For example, the 529 plan is used to pay for student loan debt. But some of the money is earmarked for other purposes, as is the case with the 529 plan. The 529 plan is one of the more complicated tax-advantaged retirement plans, so it’s not surprising that their website is extremely confusing and hard to navigate.
I can’t speak for all 529 plans, but there’s a good chance that the 529 plan you have isn’t the one with the highest benefit. Also, the 529 plan is one of the most common ways students borrow money, so the fact that the government has to maintain the 529 plan for students has serious implications for the student loan system.
The most important question to answer when it comes to the 529 plan is “who maintains the status of this? Are they the student loan servicers, or are they the government?” The answer to this is “both; they both play a significant role in how the 529 plan functions.” They are both private companies that the government hires to administer the 529 plan.
Basically, the government has a vested interest in maintaining the 529 plan because the majority of the students that use this plan are not paying it back. The government wants to keep students who borrow money from a certain amount as long as they don’t default. The students who default pay the government back, which then sends the federal tax revenue into the plan for the other students.
In order to maintain its control over the 529, the government, in one way or another, has to maintain the accuracy of the information on the 529. This includes keeping an accurate list of the loans they’ve taken out. This is a little fuzzy, because the government has to keep track of a lot of things that the average person can’t very often remember.
The government, like most governments, has an interest in ensuring that the people who pay the taxes are also paying back what they owe. In the case of the 529 plan, they are making a lot of money off the people who have defaulted on their student loans and have no idea what they owe. So it is a matter of keeping the accuracy of the information up to date.
This is the plan, where people who owe a lot of money to the government can pay a percentage of their income into the plan. If that person is still paying off their loan right now, the government is allowed to pay them the remaining balance with interest. The interest is then paid off out of the government’s general fund, so it is not a very efficient way of keeping the information up to date, but the plan is still very effective.
