It’s a bit of a process (simple… but not easy): You must cash the bond, then deposit the proceeds into a 529 plan within 60 days and in the same tax year. You must meet income limits (MAGI phase-outs apply) and have been over age 24 when the bond was issued. To benefit, you’ll need to file IRS Form 8815 for qualified education expense exclusion. ✅ If that sounds like Greek — or you just want to make sure you get it right — we’re here to help. 📞 Call our office at (715) 544-1122 and we’ll walk you through the steps so you can turn your savings bonds into education gold. #EducationPlanning #529Plan #SavingsBonds #FinancialPlanning #SaveForCollege For disclosure information, see thrivent.com/social.

✅ Key points: File by the tax deadline for the year the taxpayer passed (typically April 15 of the following year). If the death occurs early in the year, more than one return may be needed. As the year ends, reviewing and organizing these matters can help ensure estates are handled correctly and refunds are not missed. #YearEndPlanning #EstatePlanning #TaxPlanning #DeceasedTaxpayer #FinancialGuidance For disclosure information, see thrivent.com/social.

1️⃣ Take your required minimum distributions (RMDs). Missing the Dec. 31 deadline can trigger a 25% penalty. 2️⃣ Watch your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI). Even small increases could raise future Medicare premiums. 3️⃣ Consider a qualified charitable distribution (QCD). It can satisfy your RMD, lower your MAGI and help you support the causes you care about. A few simple moves today can help you avoid penalties, manage future healthcare costs and protect your retirement income. Get in touch if you’d like help reviewing your year-end strategy.
