369 (07/2026) Chapter 2:Eligibility • Section 5: Financial eligibility Real property excluded under an interim assistance agreement; REF, REFM, TANF For REF, REFM and TANF, treat real property where the equity value puts the financial group over the TANF resource limit as follows: Exclude real property for a maximum of nine months if the financial group signs and complies with the terms of the Interim Assistance Agreement. After the ninth month, count the equity value of the property as a resource. To comply with the terms of the Interim Assistance Agreement, the financial group must agree to do the following: (a) Make a good-faith effort to sell the property; and (b) Use the proceeds from the sale of the property to reimburse ODHS|OHA for all benefits paid under the terms of the Interim Assistance Agreement. The reimbursement will not exceed the net proceeds of the sale of the property. The amount of benefits paid while the financial group has excess real property is an overpayment if the financial group fails to notify ODHS|OHA they have the property. The amount of the benefits paid while the financial group has excess real property up to the net proceeds of the sale of the property is an overpayment if the property sells and the group does not repay ODHS|OHA per the terms of the Interim Assistance Agreement. Note: If the financial group has excess real property, complete a Children, Adults and Families Resource Referral form (DHS 0647B) and file in the case record with the following: • A signed copy of the Children, Adults and Families Interim Assistance Agreement (DHS 0418A) • A copy of the legal description of the property • A copy of the deed or purchase agreement (if available). Track the case for the entire nine-month exclusion period. Close the case at the end of the exclusion period. If the participant reapplies, check to see if they still have the property or if the property sold. If the participant still has the property, they remain ineligible. If the property sold while the case was closed and the participant did not reimburse ODHS|OHA, compute an overpayment. Use receipt code 216 when the participant makes a payment based on the terms of the TANF Interim Assistance Agreement. For all other programs, this does not apply.
