My mom qualified for Aid and Attendance and she is currently in an assisted living but we want her to move when we move and to build her a mom-in-law home next to our home. I know they don't count your primary residence as an asset, but, I am wondering if she sells her home and buys the property will that still be considered not countable? I am concerned the home we build for her will take longer than the required one year to re-invest.
Also, under the new laws I think she can have $123,000 in cash as an asset and still qualify so I am wondering if we can keep some of the cash from her home sale in a bank account to use for her care without her being disqualified.
