Determine SNAP maximum resource limits as follows:

A. Households in which all members receive Kentucky Transitional Assistance Program (KTAP) benefits and whose income does not exceed the SNAP gross income limit for the appropriate household size have automatically satisfied the resource eligibility criteria. Households composed entirely of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients or households in which all members receive KTAP, Kinship Care, Work Incentive Reimbursement (WIN), or Family Assistance Short Term (FAST) are Categorically Eligible (CE) and satisfy the resource eligibility criteria. See MS 3160 - MS 3199.

B. Deny or terminate eligibility if the value of nonexempt resources, including both liquid and non-liquid assets for the household, exceeds:

1. $4,500 for households that include a disabled member or a member aged 60 or over; or

2. $3,000 for all other households.

C. Households that receive a Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funded benefit or service (the TANF information sheet) are considered Expanded Categorically Eligible (ECE) and also satisfy the resource eligibility criteria. MS 3160 specifies who is not CE.
