Child support can be ordered for an adult child with disabilities, and when ordered to be paid into a First-Party SNT and administered correctly, the support may not disqualify the beneficiary from government benefits. This presentation covers how to administer the SNT in this unique situation, including who to name as trustee, how to get the payments from the Attorney General’s office to the trust account, reporting the trust, and advising the trustee how to use the monthly funds when there are other children in the home or the parent has no other income. Also, discuss how to keep difficult parents at bay.
