No, a parent cannot take money out of a UTMA account. The assets remain under the control of the custodian until the minor reaches the majority age.
A Uniform Gifts to Minors Act (UGMA) or Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA) account is an account into which property is set aside for a minor's benefit. Whether a UGMA or UTMA account is used depends on the law of the state in which the account is established.
Also, since UGMA and UTMA accounts are in the name of a single child, the funds are not transferrable to another beneficiary. For financial aid purposes, custodial accounts are considered assets of the student. This means that custodial bank and brokerage accounts have a high impact on financial aid eligibility.
Transferring a UTMA account to a child is simple. You can do so with most financial or investment institutions. You can also consult a tax or business lawyer to help you set up the legal structure, although most financial institutions can do this for you.
Depending on the state a UTMA account is handed over to a child when they reach either age 18 or age 21. In some jurisdictions, at age 18 a UTMA account can only be handed over with the custodian's permission, and at 21 is transferred automatically.
UGMA/UTMA account assets can be transferred into a new account established by the now adult beneficiary as a sole or joint owner. To get an account application, contact your financial professional or find one by using our financial professional locator. For additional assistance, contact us.
Who should consider an UGMA/UTMA account? Anyone can contribute up to $17,000 per child each year free of gift-tax consequences ($34,000 for married couples). This amount is indexed for inflation and may increase over time. Because contributions are made with after-tax dollars, a deduction cannot be taken.
You can use an UTMA accounts to invest in typical securities, like stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and ETFs. These accounts can also hold life insurance policies and real estate property, as well as other assets like royalties, patents, and fine art.
