5331.2 Transfer of The Home
If the applicant/recipient transfers his/her ownership interest in the home to some other person or legal entity (including a revocable or irrevocable trust), the home loses its exempt status. For Medically Needy, QMB, LMB and QWD, a home becomes other real property as provided in 5340 when the applicant/recipient is absent unless he or she intends to return to the home.
