§ 178.82. Japanese-American and Aleutian restitution payments.
Restitution payments made by the United States government to eligible Japanese-Americans and Aleuts who were interned or relocated during World War II are excluded. If the eligible Japanese-Americans are deceased at the time of payments, payments will be made to certain of their survivors as specified under the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 (50 App. 1989b and 1989b-1—1989b-9). This payment is also excluded. This section does not apply to eligible Aleuts who are covered under the Aleutian and Pribilof Islands Restitution Act (50 App. 1989c and 1989c-1—1989c-8). The exclusion as a resource only continues as long as the retained funds are kept identifiable. If real or personal property is purchased, the new resource is not excluded unless otherwise exempt. Interest received on retained restitution payments is also not excluded but is subject to the usual regulations governing interest in Chapter 181 (relating to income provisions for categorically needy NMP-MA and MNO-MA).
Source The provisions of this § 178.82 adopted March 22, 1991, effective upon publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, and applies retroactively to August 10, 1988, 21 Pa.B. 1182.
