55 Pa. Code § 177.31 - Resource limit

The resource limit is $1,000 for TANF budget groups and GA budget groups of two or more persons. The resource limit is $250 for a GA single person budget group. The effect of resources on determining eligibility is as follows:

(1) Resources at or under limit. If the total equity value of nonexempt personal property and nonresident real property equals or is less than the appropriate limit, the budget group is eligible. If all resources are at or under the resource limit, no acknowledgement of liability is required except for acknowledgement of liability for resident real property.

(2) Personal property resources over the limit. If the total equity value of nonexempt personal property exceeds the resource limit, the budget group is ineligible during each calendar month in which the resource total exceeds the limits.

(3) Nonresident real property resources over the limit. If the equity value of nonexempt, nonresident real property resources either alone, or when combined with nonexempt personal property which is under the limit, exceeds the resource limit, the budget group is ineligible unless the budget group acknowledges liability and agrees to convert the nonexempt nonresident real property under § 177.22(b)(3) (relating to real property).
