What Is a Special Needs Trust?

Because government programs like Social Security Income and Medicaid have strict income requirements, people often use special needs trusts to maintain eligibility for benefits. With a special needs trust, you can leave property and money you want your loved one to inherit, however, they don’t have to claim it when they apply for SSI and Medicaid benefits.

By setting up and properly funding a special needs trust, the disabled person in your life will be able to live comfortably and pay for unqualified expenses when they reach the age of 18.

How To Protect Your Loved One From Financial Abuse

In addition to setting up a special needs individual’s finances for the future, a special needs trust also provides protection against scammers who target the elderly or disabled. The trustee of the special needs trust can assist with managing funds for the disabled person when they need additional assistance.

The trustee is responsible for administering funds from the trust on behalf of the beneficiary. By selecting a trustworthy trustee, you can feel confident that your loved one will be cared for in countless circumstances.
