Featured in US News and World Report
We are proud to have Alex, John and Cindy featured in Friday’s US News and World Report article, “What is an ABLE Account?”. The ABLE account, also known as a 529A account, is a tax-advantaged way for people with disabilities to build their own savings without impacting their eligibility for government benefits. Please take a look at this helpful article that summarizes how the account works, who is eligible, contribution limits and approved uses for the funds.
