WAC 365-205-060
What are the accountholder's
responsibilities? Accountholders must sign an individual
savings plan that identifies their savings and asset goal, and
open a savings account at a financial institution that is
participating in the IDA program. Accountholders must make
deposits to their savings account on a regular basis and must
attend financial literacy classes, which will help them with
managing their finances. Additional training or counseling
may also be provided to accountholders that will help to
prepare them for their specific asset, such as home ownership
counseling or micro-enterprise training. An accountholder may
terminate their agreement with their service provider at any
time and withdraw their savings, thereby giving up access to
all IDA matching funds.
