I have heard that when the minor of a UGMA account reaches the age of majority and converts the account to an individual account that they get a step up in cost basis for all assets in that account. Does anyone know if this is true? I have searched the FAQ's and other messages but have been unable to find anything on what happens after the UGMA is converted to an individual account. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
