What is capital

The amount of capital a family holds may affect entitlement. Capital, which is not defined in the Act or regs can take many forms. Capital differs from income because it is

1) made without reference to a period and

2) made without reference to any past payment and

3) not intended to, or does not, form part of a series of payments (but see DMG42013).
