As 5/29 approaches this month, it’s a great reminder to revisit the benefits of 529 savings plans. Many families are familiar with traditional 529 accounts used to help save for future education expenses, but there are other planning options available as well.

One option that is often overlooked is the 529 ABLE account. ABLE accounts can be a valuable planning tool for individuals with disabilities and their families, helping provide tax-advantaged savings opportunities while preserving eligibility for certain means-tested benefits such as SSI and Medicaid for those who qualify.

For families caring for a child with special needs, understanding the available planning strategies can make a meaningful difference over time. Every situation is unique, and it’s important to evaluate which options align with your family’s goals and circumstances.



Disclaimer: 529 plans and 529 able plans are subject to certain limitations and exceptions and they also involve risk, including possible loss of principal. The earnings portion of the withdrawals will be subject to ordinary taxes plus 10% penalty if used for non-eligible expenses.
