DEPARTMENT FOR AGING AND REHABILITATIVE SERVICES AUXILIARY GRANT PROGRAM NON-SSI RESOURCE ELIGIBILITY 11/18 CHAPTER E PAGE 14 Resumption of use must be expected within 12 months of last use. For example, if property was last used in October, resumption of use must reasonably be expected to occur before the end of the following October. 8.2.2. 12-Month Extension The 12-month period can be extended for an additional 12 months if nonuse is due to a disabling condition. 8.2.2.1. Disabling Condition If an individual alleges that self- support property is not in current use because of a disabling condition, obtain the individual's signed statement as to: • The nature of the condition; • The date he or she ceased the self-support activity; and • When he or she intends to resume the activity, if at all. 8.2.3. No Intent To Resume Activity If the individual does not intend to resume the self-support activity, the property is a countable resource for the month after the month of last use. 8.2.4. Change of Intent If, after property has been excluded because an individual intends to resume self-support activity, the individual decides not to resume such activity, the exclusion ceases to apply as of the date of the change of intent. Thus, unless excluded under another provision, the property is a resource for the following month. 8.3. Value 8.3.1.
