What happens to money in 529 if not used?
If you truly have no other use for your leftover 529 plan savings, you can always take a non-qualified distribution. Your contributions will never be taxed or penalized, since they were made with after-tax dollars. Any earnings on your investments, however, will be subject to income tax as well as a 10% penalty.
How much can a parent contribute to a 529 per year?
In either case, parents receive the same treatment as any other person making a contribution: each parent can give up to $15,000 annually to their child's 529 plan without having to file a gift tax return, for a total of $30,000 per year.
