c$.$ The contributions to a Section $529$ plan are not deductible, but contributions to an Educational Savings Account are deductible.

d$.$ The maximum annual contribution to an Educational Savings Account is $$2,000,$ which is phased out for high$-$income individuals. The contributions to a Section $529$ plan may be larger than $$2,000$ and are not phased out for high$-$income individuals.
