WVABLE Accounts allow individuals with disabilities the ability to save and invest without losing public benefits, including Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid. Getting started is easy. Go to www.wvable.com and follow the steps below:

1. Create an Account

2. Fund your account – open your account with as little as $25. This is the minimum amount needed to open your account – this is not a fee, rather it creates your opening balance. Once the account is funded and the account is in active status, STABLE account will issue a $25 grant to match this initial deposit: https://buff.ly/FdmJ1K2

3. Save, Invest & Spend – funds in your STABLE account can be used at any time to pay for qualified disability related expenses.

It's a Monday and that means a Myth Buster from WVABLE.

❌ MYTH: To qualify for a WVABLE account, the individual with the disability must be under the age of 46.

✅ FACT: To qualify for a WVABLE account, the onset of the disability must be present prior to the individual’s 46th birthday. Additionally, they do not need to be under 46 when opening an account.
