FAQ

Every W-2 employee earning income in the State of WA will be required to have 58 cents/$100 of income deducted from payroll which will be placed in a Long-term Care Services & Supports Trust Account. Someone making $50,000 would pay $24/month into the fund. There are no income limits, all income is taxed starting at age 18 with no maximum age.

You may opt out of the deduction if you own a long-term care insurance policy.

According to the current guidelines, you must have a long-term care insurance policy in place before November 1, 2021 to opt out of the automatic deduction.

Deductions begin January 1, 2022 . Benefits will not be available until January 1, 2025.

The state plan will provide a benefit pool of $36,500 adjusted for inflation, with up to $100/day reimbursement payment for home care, assisted living or nursing home care.

To qualify for the benefit, workers would pay into the fund for a minimum of 3 years. WA residents become eligible to use the benefit at the time they need help with 3 of 10 activities of daily living like bathing, dressing, using the toilet and getting in and out of bed. Must be a current Washington resident to access benefits at claim time. Individuals currently retired or out of the work force would not pay into the system and would not be eligible for the benefit.
