The New Year is coming, and so are some exciting new developments for ABLE accounts!

Starting the first of the year, landmark federal legislation, the ABLE Age Adjustment Act, is set to take effect. The age adjustment raises—from 26 to 46—the age at which a disability needs to have started for a person to qualify to open an ABLE account. Over 6 million additional individuals nationwide will now be eligible to save for disability-related costs!

Read to the end for key insights on investing with ABLE from Oregon’s own investment advisor, Ryan Fitzgerald of Sellwood Investment Partners.

Starting next year, people who became disabled by age 46 will be eligible for ABLE accounts. The accounts have been slow to catch on, partly because the current age limit is 26.
