Earliest Availability of Contract Benefits
Cite as 38 Miss. Admin. Code Pt. 3, R. 9.3
Earliest Availability of Contract Benefits. In general, the earliest a Qualified Beneficiary
may receive benefits under an MPACT Contract purchased during any Enrollment Period will be
the Projected Enrollment Year of the Qualified Beneficiary as provided in the MPACT Contract,
unless the Beneficiary is an accelerated student. In the event that the Beneficiary is an
accelerated student, the MPACT Contract may be used, with no penalty or additional Contract
cost, within three (3) years in advance of the Projected College Entrance Date of the Qualified
Beneficiary. Proof that the Beneficiary is an accelerated student must be provided in such form
and detail as required by the State Treasurer.
The MPACT Contract and any outstanding Actuarial Assessments and Administrative Fees
should be paid in full to advance utilization of the Contract benefits prior to the Beneficiary’s
Projected College Entrance Date. However, utilization of the Contract benefits prior to the
Beneficiary’s Projected Enrollment Year will not be available unless such early utilization is
deemed actuarially feasible.
