Webinar, November 2nd, 2020, with the Northeast Arc of Danvers, MA. Part of the Adult Autism Specialist Virtual Speaker Series. For families of Adults with an Autism Spectrum Disorder without an Intellectual Disability, and their Families.
* A large part of financial planning for special needs is calculating how much money the child is going to need, both down the road (during the parents’ retirement) and also once the parents pass away.
* It is also important for this planning to understand what public benefits may be available and doing proper estate planning so that these benefits are not jeopardized, as many are “means-tested” (the child can’t have more than a certain amount of money in their name, often $2,000).
Common questions covered include:
- What will my child do when they age out of public schools?
- Where will my son or daughter live down the road, especially when we’re not around any longer?
- What estate planning do we need to make sure public benefits are preserved?
- How much money should we plan on leaving our child, and what is the best way to do this?
