MAA Eligibility & Expectations

Child Eligibility Requirements

In most cases, a child living in Minnesota qualifies if they:

• Currently are in grades K-12, and

• Attend public or private school or are homeschooled.

See additional requirements if you have a unique family situation to determine if a child qualifies. (Note: Students and parents are eligible if they have an ITIN—they do not need to have a Social Security number.)

Income Requirements

To qualify, your adjusted gross income (AGI) this year and last year must be $70,000 or less.

Expectations for the Enrolling Child’s Parent(s) or Guardian(s)

• Commit to filing a Minnesota income tax return for the year of enrollment in MAA

• Provide the required family contribution of 25% of the cost of each activity you participate in

• Commit to ensuring that your child fully uses the services they registered for

• Repay MAA for the amount loaned to you via your tax refund (which should include the tax credit to pay for the activities)
