01.
Essential Property in Current
Use. Property in current use in the type of activity that qualifies it
as essential to self-support is excluded, regardless of value or rate of
return. Trade or business property, government permits, and personal property
used by an employee for work are excluded regardless of value or rate of
return. If the property is not in current use, for reasons beyond the
participant 's control, there must be a reasonable expectation the required use
will resume. If the participant does not intend to resume the self-support
activity, the property is a countable resource for the month after the month of
last use. (3-17-22)
02.
Nonbusiness Property Producing Goods or Services. Up to six
thousand dollars ($6,000) of the equity value of nonbusiness property, used to
produce goods or services essential to daily activities, is excluded regardless
of rate of return. Equity value over six thousand dollars ($6,000) is not
excluded. This exclusion is not used for income producing property.
(3-17-22)
03.
Nonbusiness
Income Producing Property. Up to six thousand dollars ($6,000) equity in
nonbusiness income producing property is excluded if it produces at least a six
percent (6%) rate of return. The property must produce a net annual return
equal to at least six percent (6%) of the excluded equity. If a participant
owns more than one (1) piece of income producing property, the six percent (6%)
return requirement applies to each. The six thousand dollars ($6,000) equity
value limit applies to the total equity value of all the properties meeting the
six percent (6%) return requirement. If the earnings decline is for reasons
beyond the participant 's control, up to twenty-four (24) months can be allowed
for the property to resume producing a six percent (6%) return. If the property
still is not producing a six percent (6%) return at the end of the twenty-four
(24) month extension, the resource exclusion must end the month after the month
the twenty-four (24) month period ends. (3-17-22)
