The ABLE Veterans Toolkit
Many Veterans and their families face financial stress resulting from unexpected emergencies, rising housing costs, the need for specialized care, education and other situations that cannot be financially supported in full. Even with VA disability compensation, pensions, health care, and Social Security benefits, the gap can remain between what you have and what you need. This is where ABLE accounts can make a difference. If you or a loved one has a severe disability that began before age 26 (age 46 starting in 1/2026), you may be eligible for an ABLE account even if you are not currently receiving disability-based benefits. These powerful savings accounts allow you to save and invest without risking public benefits now or in the future. Your money grows tax-free and can be used tax-free for a wide range of needs including housing, education, transportation, assistive technology and more.
The ABLE Veterans Toolkit can help you get started. This free, easy-to-use guide is created specifically for Veterans and military families like yours. It offers step-by-step guidance, expert tips, and strategies to help you unlock the full potential of an ABLE account
