Treasury unveils employer contribution program for Trump Accounts

Treasury says 1.4 million eligible children have been registered for the $1,000 seed deposit, and families must opt in to claim it.

  • The U.S. Treasury Department released guidance allowing employers to contribute up to $2,500 annually, tax-free, to Trump Accounts for employees' children, which are tax-preferred savings accounts for minors established by the 2025 Working Families Tax Cuts Act.
  • More than 50 companies, including Vanguard and Visa, have committed to contributing to Trump Accounts, with employer contributions starting in 2027 and some matching the federal $1,000 seed contribution for children born 2025-2028.
  • Trump Accounts permit contributions from parents, relatives, philanthropists, and employers, with a combined annual limit of $5,000 per child under 18, including a $1,000 federal seed contribution.
  • Though early adoption has been limited, the new Treasury guidance aims to clarify administrative rules and potentially increase employer participation in Trump Account contributions.
