SI 02305.105 Developing Personal Property and Equipment - RZs

A. Introduction

This section provides procedures for developing recipient allegations about ownership of personal property and equipment during an RZ interview.

B. Description of RZs completed on MSSICS screens

Opening a “REDETERMINATION with or without RECAPs” event creates a MSSICS “path” which guides the interviewer to the appropriate screens to document allegations and evidence relating to ownership of personal property and equipment, as necessary.

C. Description of Form SSA-8202-BK

There is no question on the SSA-8202-BK specifically designed to elicit information about ownership of personal property and equipment.

D. Description of Form SSA-8203-BK - Question 21

Question 21 on the SSA-8203-BK — Do you (or your spouse living with you) own any of the following items (answer “yes” if your name or your spouse's name appears alone or with any other person as the owner or part owner of any of these items):

E. Procedure

Developing allegations about ownership of personal property and equipment, as follows:

1. If recipients allege no ownership of personal property and equipment and other information in SSA records agrees

If recipients allege no ownership of personal property and equipment and other information in SSA records agrees, do not develop ownership of personal property and equipment any further.

2. If recipients allege no ownership of personal property and equipment and other information in SSA records conflicts

If recipients allege no ownership of personal property and equipment and other information in SSA records conflicts, did the recipient dispose of a resource which we have on record?

  • If so, develop as appropriate for an increase/decrease in the value of resources per SI 01110.600. If it appears the resource was disposed of for less than fair market value, see SI 01150.110.

  • If not, develop as in SI 02305.105E.3.

3. If recipients allege ownership of personal property and equipment

If recipients allege ownership of personal property and equipment, develop, as necessary, per:

  • General Posteligibility Verification Requirements (SI 01140.010)

  • Household Goods and Personal Effects (SI 01130.430)

  • Property Essential to Self-Support (SI 01130.500)
