ESA questions, answered
- What is an education savings account (ESA)?
- An ESA is a state-funded account that lets approved families pay for qualified education expenses — curriculum, tutoring, therapies, and certain services and software — usually through a platform like ClassWallet, Odyssey, or Step Up. Each state sets its own award amount, eligible categories, and rules.
- Can I use ESA funds for homeschool record-keeping software?
- Often, yes. Many programs include curriculum, online learning programs, and educational software as eligible categories. ArborSlate is ESA-eligible in Arizona under the “tuition or fees, online learning program (non-public)” category. Approval is per submission and set by your state, so always check your program’s current category list.
- How does ArborSlate help with an ESA audit?
- It keeps every expense organized by your state’s approved categories, attaches receipts, flags commonly-disallowed vendors, and assembles quarterly summaries and one-click audit-defense exports — so when a review comes, your records are already in order.
- Which states does ArborSlate support?
- The free ESA expense tracker and the full records system work in any state, ESA or not. State-specific pages with verified expense categories are live for Arizona and a growing list of programs — pick your state above to see what’s covered.
