How to fill out the SPECIAL NEEDS TRUST (SNT) DECISION TREE online
Filling out the Special Needs Trust (SNT) Decision Tree online can seem daunting, but this guide will help you navigate each step with ease. By following these instructions, you will gain clarity on the requirements and processes involved in establishing a special needs trust for eligible beneficiaries.
Follow the steps to successfully complete the form online.
- Press the ‘Get Form’ button to access the form and open it in your preferred editor.
- Begin with determining if the beneficiary has a disability. If they do not, you can proceed to the next sections to evaluate other criteria.
- Check if the beneficiary is under the age of 65. If 'yes', consider the d4C CFPD pooled trust, but be aware of the potential transfer penalty.
- Evaluate whether the beneficiary is receiving needs-based public assistance. If 'no', you might not need an SNT.
- If the beneficiary is under needs-based assistance, assess if they have a guardian or conservator. If 'yes', different rules apply depending on the amount in the trust.
- Identify whose money will be contributed to the trust. The trust can be established by a parent or grandparent if they are contributing funds.
- Finally, once all sections are completed, review your entries. Users may then choose to save their changes, download the document, print it for reference, or share it as needed.

Special needs trusts are typically created in conjunction with a special needs attorney, which can cost anywhere from $2,000–$5,000 (you may consider asking the attorney you choose if they will consider setting up a payment plan).
