In Florida, we are fortunate enough to have ABLE United financial accounts to better help families encourage and assist people with disabilities to save private funds to support health independence and quality of life.

Generally speaking, ABLE United accounts allow families to save tax-free for future expenses, save while maintaining federal benefits, and offer families and friends ways to help. To qualify, you must be a Florida Resident and have a qualifying disability with onset prior to age 26.

How it works:

• Open an account: The individual with a disability owns the account, but an authorized person may open and oversee as needed.
• Contribute & Choose Investments: Accounts can be opened with as little as $25, and families are able to save up to $15,000 per year. Portfolio investment options are available for the fund as well, including an FDIC-insured savings option.
• Withdraw: Access your funds by requesting an electronic transfer to a linked bank account or a reloadable prepaid card.
