Hoping thread title gets some more eyeballs on this =)
I've taken 2 college courses for fun this year (one in the spring and one in the summer.) I paid tuition money in January 2021 and May 2021 for these classes.
Do you think I can open a 529 with myself as the beneficiary and claim my state's (Oklahoma) 529 tax credit for 2021?
I have perused the Oklahoma 529 website and haven't seen any notice of a required holding period. I know that this is a 529 "hack" that numerous internet articles mention, but the point that worries is me is that the date of the 529 opening is going to fall after the date of tuition payments. Any thoughts, comments, or silly remarks?
