How are Trump account distributions taxed?

During the growth period, distributions generally are not allowed. After age 18:

  • Contributions you made (your basis) are not taxed when withdrawn
  • Earnings, pilot program contributions, qualified general contributions, and employer contributions are taxed as ordinary income when distributed
  • Trump accounts are calculated separately from other IRAs for determining the taxable portion
