Are there Different Types of Pooled Supplemental Needs Trusts?
• There are 2 different types of pooled SNT’s based on who “owns” the money which funds the Trust. • If the money belongs to the Beneficiary, it will go into a First-Party SNT. This Trust can be set up by the Beneficiary, a parent, grandparent, legal guardian, or the court. • If the money belongs to someone other than the Beneficiary, and will be put into a Trust for the benefit of the Beneficiary, it will go into a Third-Party SNT. This Trust can be set up by anyone other than the Beneficiary.
