The term “qualified ABLE program” means a program established and maintained by a State, or agency or instrumentality thereof—

which limits a designated beneficiary to 1 ABLE account for purposes of this section, and
which meets the other requirements of this section.
A program shall not be treated as a qualified ABLE program unless it provides that no contribution will be accepted—
(A) unless it is in cash, or
(B) except in the case of contributions under subsection (c)(1)(C) or received in a qualified ABLE rollover contribution described in section 530A(d)(4)(B), if such contribution to an ABLE account would result in aggregate contributions from all contributors to the ABLE account for the taxable year exceeding the sum of— (i) the amount in effect under section 2503(b) (determined by substituting “1996” for “1997” in paragraph (2)(B) thereof) for the calendar year in which the taxable year begins, plus (ii) in the case of any contribution by a designated beneficiary described in paragraph (7), the lesser of— (I) compensation (as defined by section 219(f)(1)) includible in the designated beneficiary’s gross income for the taxable year, or (II) an amount equal to the poverty line for a one-person household, as determined for the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which the taxable year begins.
For purposes of this paragraph, rules similar to the rules of section 408(d)(4) (determined without regard to subparagraph (B) thereof) shall apply.
