What tax documents do I need to prove 529 rollover?

Personal Finance & Money Asked on June 3, 2021

I rolled over 529 from one institution to another. The distributing institution issued a 1099-Q. I need a matching document showing that I contributed the funds to the new institution. Does this form have a specific name? Can I just provide the IRS with a statement from the new institution?

One Answer

From Publication 970 (PDF), page 63, it seems that you do not need a "matching document":

An amount is rolled over if it's paid to an ABLE account or another QTP within 60 days after the date of the distribution.

Note. Under COVID-19 emergency relief, the student could roll over these amounts by July 15, 2020, if the 60-day period ends on or after April 1, 2020, and before July 15, 2020.

Don't report qualifying rollovers (those that meet the above criteria) anywhere on Form 1040, 1040-SR, or 1040-NR. These aren't taxable distributions.
