Beginning May 1, 2012, the resource limit for households containing an elderly and/or disabled member will be increased from $3,000 to $3,250 per month. This change in policy will be implemented retroactively to October 1, 2011.

To avoid the wrongful denial/discontinuance of benefits to applicants/beneficiaries.
