9050 Handling of Excluded Funds

[273.8(f)] Excluded funds that are kept in a separate account, and that are not accumulated in an account with non-excluded funds retain their resource exclusion for an unlimited period of time. The resources of students and self- employment households which are excluded as provided in DSSM 9049(9) and are commingled in an account with non-excluded funds retain their exclusion for the period of time over which they have been prorated as income. All other excluded monies which are commingled in an account with non-excluded funds retain their exemption for six months from the date they are commingled. After six months from the date of commingling, all funds in the commingled account are counted as a resource.
