The benefits of establishing a QTP are:

• Earnings accumulate tax free while in the account.

• The beneficiary doesn’t generally have to include the earnings from a QTP as income.

• Distributions aren’t taxable when used to pay qualified higher education expenses. However, if the amount of a distribution is greater than the beneficiary’s qualified higher education expenses, a portion of the earnings is taxable.
