Personal Finance (Not Investing) • Living trust income problem

$
0

The income limit for her housing is $38k. She is currently around $30k between an RMD + SS. So yes, this will definitely push her past the income limit. If this causes her to lose her apartment it will be a big problem.
I am very surprised a revocable trust can be use to shelter income or assets to allow a state or local govt subsidy.
The issue is the income, not the revocable trust. I agree with you the revocable trust likely doesn’t provide any protection for government benefits.

Could the property be put into a irrevocable trust before the sale?

I would have thought there would have been step up in basis over the years
