How It Works

Open an account: It’s free and easy and takes about 15 minutes. The individual with a disability owns the account, but an authorized person may open and oversee the account.

Contribute: Get started saving today with as little as $25. Save up to $18,000 per year – individually or with the help of family and friends. Now, with ABLE to Work the beneficiary can save even more than $18,000 if working and not saving for retirement.

Choose investments: Choose from three predesigned portfolios or five individuals funds, including an FDIC-insured savings option, to build a portfolio that meets your savings goals.

Withdraw: Easily access funds online by requesting an electronic transfer to: a linked bank account or reloadable ABLE Visa® Prepaid Card; or request a paper check from customer service.
