# §115.418. What types of trust funds may a minor have?


A minor may have one or more of the following types of trust funds:

- (a) **Judgment per capita funds—** Withdrawals may only be made upon BIA approval of an application made under Public Law 97-458. See [25 CFR 1.2](/cfr/25/1.2.md).
- (b) **Tribal per capita funds—** Withdrawals may only be made under a BIA approved distribution plan and in accordance with the terms of the tribe's per capita resolution/document.
- (c) **Other trust funds—** Withdrawals may only be made under a minor's BIA-approved distribution plan that is based on a justified unmet need for the minor's health, education, or welfare.
- (d) Funds from other federal agencies (e.g., SSA, SSI, VA) received for the benefit of the minor: Withdrawals must be made only under a BIA-approved distribution plan that must be consistent with the disbursing agency's (e.g., SSA, SSI, VA) allowable uses for the funds.
