DESCRIPTION:\nIdaho’s New 529A ABLE Account: A Planning Tool for Clients with Special Needs\n\nAbout the Presentation\n\nIdaho’s new ABLE Savings Plan gives individuals with disabilities and their families another important tool for long-term financial and estate planning. Offered through Idaho’s partnership with the national STABLE Account program, ABLE accounts allow eligible individuals to save and invest for qualified disability-related expenses while generally preserving eligibility for means-tested benefits such as SSI and Medicaid.\n\nIn this presentation, Josh Reams will explain how Idaho’s new ABLE program works and where it fits within a comprehensive special-needs planning strategy. The discussion will address eligibility, contributions and distributions, qualified disability expenses, public-benefit considerations, and how ABLE accounts can be coordinated with special needs trusts and other estate planning techniques. The program is especially timely following the 2026 expansion of ABLE eligibility to individuals whose qualifying disability began before age 46, up from the previous age 26 threshold.\n\nAbout Josh Reams\n\nJoshua C.P.
