Answer 1

Two options are correct, but only the following statement is incorrect: d. One of the disadvantages of QTPs is that the owner/contributor shares control of the account with the student/beneficiary.

Step-by-step explanation:

A qualified tuition program (QTP) is a program established and maintained by a state, or an agency or entity of a state, that allows a taxpayer to pay in advance the qualified higher education expenses of a beneficiary in an eligible educational institution or to contribute to an account to pay those expenses. Eligible educational institutions may also establish and maintain QTP, but only to allow a beneficiary's qualified higher education expenses to be paid in advance. After December 31, 2017, qualified higher education expenses include tuition fees in connection with the enrollment or attendance of a designated beneficiary in a public, private or religious primary or secondary school, that is, from kindergarten through Grade 12, up to a total amount of $ 10,000 per year of all QTP of the designated beneficiary.
