[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She owns a condo together with DH (both names in the deed) with outstanding mortgage. Would paying off the mortgage count as spending? Is she only allowed to pay off half of the mortgage and DH would have to pay off another half? I guess the main question is which are the legit ways to spend the money? New territory for us and I was wondering whom should we consult? Elder law or financial advisor? (OP)[/quote] Sure, she can dump all of her money into the home. And assuming DH lives there, it won't impact her immediate medicaid eligibility. But the state will recover that money from the value of the home after the surviving spouse dies.[/quote]
