Check your account owner information

As you prepare for back to school, it’s a good time to check your account and ensure your information is accurate.

Log in at my529.org to see that your name, address, email address, phone number and account beneficiary information is up-to-date and correct.

You can easily update your contact information by logging in to your account at my529.org. You may also mail an Account Information Change form (Form 500) to the my529 offices. The form is available for printing at my529.org.

Enhance security with 2FA

If you haven’t logged in to your online my529 account lately, you may not have set up two-factor authentication (2FA). The practice requires two separate verification methods, such as a password and one-time security code, to confirm the identity of the account owner. It only takes a few minutes to register for 2FA once you’re logged in.

Update passwords

If necessary, choose a new password to keep your account secure. It is a good practice to change passwords frequently and to determine if your password is a strong one.

Select digital communications

If you do not wish to receive your quarterly statements and tax forms through the mail, you can opt in your online account to receive digital notices alerting you to when the documents are available to view or download online.
