surely u have da right to see the policy. as on bank account if ur dads wife is the main beneficiary then she can change bank account. but u have some legal rights to stop them too. like any will. if your dad has no will then u also stop them to change the bank account. first try some emotional things. give respect n other emotional things to your dad's wife. this will surely work. n she will transfer some benefits to you too.
emotional things always works.
good luck |

No. In an UTMA account, the money must be used to benefit the child. |

UGMA (Uniform Gift to Minor's Act) and UTMA (Uniform Transfer to Minor's Act) are just fancy custodial accounts. They're commonly set up to make sure that any assets a minor owns are protected against evil-doers. The account hold the assets of the kid, and they're watched over by big brother to make sure the assets aren't misused. The kid gains control when they reach their state's age of majority.
Lot's of legal games are played here. You can use the account to take advantage of kid's tax rates, including the fun "kiddie tax" which allows part of a kid's earnings to go untaxed (unlike me and mom!) Children's tax rates are often less than adults, but I'm too tired to go into that here.
There's more to it than this, but you can get a ton of info online. If you need any specifics, let us know.

Hi InsTeacher,

So, you mean these are accounts that are being regulated under the UGMA and UTMA acts? What does one need to do in order to set up such accounts?

You've certainly given us a hint over here. It would be worth knowing a bit more.. 
| Quote: | | I think it can be any person to whomever one (parents of child) trust. |
So, I suppose these accounts are to be created while the parents are still alive..is that correct?
