As we begin the new year, it’s good to revisit important available resources. The ABLE Account tops the list today.
ABLE stands for “Achieving a Better Life Experience. Read details at www.illinoisable.com. In short, it is a savings account for persons with disability onset prior to age 26.
ABLE accounts exist to help:
- · Invest in yourself, build independence.
- · Be in control. Save for current and future expenses.
- · Preserve your federal SSI, Medicaid, and HUD benefits.
- · Save smart. Plan for your child’s future.
- · Build independence. Save more if you work.
