Many of these benefits require meeting a means or resource test that limits the eligibility of individuals who report more than $2,000 in cash savings, retirement funds and other items of significant value.</p><p>For the first time, the legislation that enabled creation of MiABLE accounts recognizes the extra and significant costs of living with a disability. MiABLE accounts provide eligible individuals the opportunity to save and fund a variety of qualified expenses without endangering eligibility for certain benefits that are critical to their health and well-being, such as Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income.</p><p>For more information, please visit: https://savewithable.com/</p>
