The answer depends on many variables. First, whether your son is just an accommodation party on the house or whether he really purchased. Another factor is when his name was put on the house. Third, the fact that he lives there is of no consequence. Fourth, thee decision is also dependent upon whether you will be returning to the house. Full information is available to you by contacting social security/medicaid.
