I'd check for a senior resources center near him. They
usually have someone available to answer these basic
questions about Medicaid.

I don't mean to be rude, but this has nothing to do with
taxation. Talk to your state's Medicaid people.

Your question is not a tax question. Medicaid is
administered by each state. In NJ, the program is
administered by the Division of Medical Assistance and
Health Services under the Dept. of Human Services.
Their website is at
http://www.state.nj.us/humanservices/dmahs/dhsmed.html
Their manual on Medicaid is available in pdf format at:
http://www.state.nj.us/humanservices...2010-71%20.pdf.
You can find the definition of countable resources starting on
page 50 of that manual.

Here's the most important point: If NJ is anything like CA,
where I am, or any other state for that matter, the average
person will not be able to figure out exactly what is a
countable resource. Here in the Los Angeles area, we
generally refer individuals to a host of nonprofit agencies
that provide help at no charge in applying for Medi-Cal (CA
Medicaid program). Below is a link to a website run by a NJ
attorney who specializes in this field. The link is not a
recommendation as I have no knowledge about this firm. I am
providing the link, because the website has very good
information on qualifying for Medicaid in NJ.

Contact an attorney. Medicaid is not a tax issue.

Default Medicaid Countable Income and Resources

My uncle got Medicaid denial letter stating that his
countable income exceeds $1200 and countable resources
exceeds $6900. He is based in NJ. What does countable income
and countable resources mean? Where do they get this info?

Their house is in my uncle's and aunt's name. They have no
income. How they can be eligible? What they have to do?

Thanks.
