Refusal to Open an Account
The Board may refuse to open an account
for reasons that may include but are not necessarily limited to the following:
(1) The applicant is not
an eligible account owner.
(2) The applicant has not
provided all of the information required by the application.
(3) The total account balance
of all accounts in the network for the same designated beneficiary is (or would
be when taking into account a contribution being made) greater than the maximum
limit established by the board pursuant to OAR 173-009-0015. The network shall accept
contributions for accounts for that designated beneficiary (including contributions
establishing new accounts), in the order of their receipt until the maximum account
balance limit for that designated beneficiary has been reached.
(4) Entering into a participation
agreement between the board and the applicant violates any federal securities or
state "blue sky" laws or any other federal or state law.
(5) The Board determines
that, for any other reason, it would be advisable to limit the number of accounts
in the network or the plan under which the account is being opened.
(6) The board reserves the
right to refuse applications that it determines to be an abuse of the network or
a plan.
