Documentation Requirements

Parents, grandparents, siblings and spouses can open and manage their eligible family member’s ABLEnow account as an Authorized Representative. For these categories of family members, no documentation of the relationship is required during enrollment, but the Authorized Representative must certify that there is no other individual with a higher priority who is willing and able to serve as Authorized Representative. The order of priority for family members is the: 1) spouse, 2) parent, 3) sibling, and 4) grandparent.

Authorized Representatives opening and managing an ABLEnow account as the Legal Guardian, Care Representative, or Attorney in Fact acting under Power of Attorney for the eligible individual are required to upload the appropriate legal documentation electronically before they will be able to contribute funds, withdraw funds, or use the ABLEnow Card.
