Does the stimulus check amount count for SSI resource limit in the bank account? After receiving the stimulus check I'm over the resource limit in my bank account. Is this a problem or not? Thanks a lot for your attention.

Hi,

Social Security has announced that stimulus payments will be excluded from counting as a resource for purposes of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program for 12 months (https://www.ssa.gov/coronavirus/).
