20 C.F.R. § 418.3405 What types of resources do we count?
Title 20 - Employees' Benefits
(a) We count liquid resources. Liquid resources are cash, financial accounts, and other financial instruments which can be converted to cash within 20 workdays, excluding certain nonworkdays as explained in §416.120(d) of this chapter. Examples of resources that are ordinarily liquid are stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares, promissory notes, mortgages, life insurance policies, financial institution accounts (including savings, checking, and time deposits, also known as certificates of deposit), retirement accounts (such as individual retirement accounts (IRA), 401(k) accounts), trusts if they are revocable, funds in an irrevocable trust if the trust beneficiary can direct the use of the funds, and similar items. We will presume that these types of resources can be converted to cash within 20 workdays and are countable as resources for subsidy determinations. However, if the individual establishes that a particular resource cannot be converted to cash within 20 workdays, we will not count it as a resource. (b) We count the equity value of real property as a resource regardless of whether it can be sold within 20 workdays. However, we do not count the home that is your principal place of residence and the land on which it is situated as a resource as defined in §418.3425(a).
