Preguntas habituales
What is the trustee's role in this diagram?
The trustee administers the trust and makes distributions or payments according to the trust terms and applicable rules.
Why are providers shown as payment recipients?
It can clarify that a trust may pay for goods or services that benefit the beneficiary rather than making every payment directly to that person.
Can a special needs trust affect benefits?
It can. The effect depends on the trust, source of funds and benefit program, so seek qualified legal guidance for the specific situation.
