Employees
If your company has not established a corporate relationship with NextGen,
you are still able to establish a NextGen account. You may be able to fund it through
payroll deduction (determined by your employer). On the account form, you must
indicate that you would like to enroll through payroll deduction. A form will
be sent to you after your account has been established for you to deliver to your Human
Resources Department or Payroll Provider.
Before you invest in the NextGen plan, please carefully read the NextGen College Investing Plan Program Description. The program description contains more complete information, including investment objectives, charges, expenses and risks of investing in the NextGen plan, which you should consider. You should also consider whether your home state or your designated beneficiary’s home state offers any state tax or other benefits that are only available for investments in such state’s 529 plan.
