Retirement funds are work-related plans for providing income or pensions when employment ends. A retirement fund, owned by a participant, is a resource if they have the option of withdrawing a lump sum, even though they are not yet eligible for periodic retirement payments. If the participant is eligible for periodic retirement payments, the fund is not a countable resource. The value of a retirement fund is the amount of money a participant can currently withdraw from the fund.
