Summary

This bill removes restrictions that currently prevent full-time students from claiming the Saver's Credit and Saver's Match. The Saver's Credit is a tax credit for low-income and moderate-income savers who contribute to retirement accounts, and the Saver's Match is a government contribution to retirement accounts for eligible savers. The bill allows full-time students who are claimed as dependents to claim these benefits if they save for retirement. The changes apply to retirement contributions made after the bill's enactment for the Saver's Credit, and retroactively to the SECURE 2.0 Act of 2022 for the Saver's Match.
