Universal Citation: 7 AK Admin Code 100.136

Current through August 30, 2024

(a) In determining the eligibility of an applicant who is an alien under 7 AAC 100.050 and 7 AAC 100.052, the department will count the nonexempt resources of the alien's sponsor and the sponsor's spouse who is living with the sponsor, if the sponsor

(1) or the sponsor's spouse are not receiving Family Medicaid or SSI; and

(2) signed an I-864 affidavit of sponsorship form on or after December 19, 1997, or a successor form issued by USCIS.

(b) The department will consider the nonexempt resources of a sponsor and the sponsor's spouse to be available to the sponsored alien, less $1,500. The total available nonexempt resources will be determined as if the sponsor were applying for Family Medicaid. If the sponsor is the sponsor of two or more aliens, the department will consider those total nonexempt resources to be available to each sponsored alien in equally divided amounts.

(c) An alien shall, in cooperation with the sponsor, provide the department with any information and documentation necessary to determine the sponsor's resources.

(d) The department will cease to consider a sponsor's and sponsor's spouse's nonexempt resources to be available under (b) of this section to the sponsored alien, once the alien

(1) accrues for the purpose of Social Security benefits 40 qualifying quarters of coverage work credit as defined in 42 U.S.C. 413; or

(2) becomes a United States citizen.
