An applicant or resident is the primary source of financial information to determine ability to pay except when the management of the applicant's or resident's financial affairs is in the hands of a legal representative. If the applicant or resident is not the source of financial information, the reason must be noted in the applicant's or resident's financial information file.
If an applicant or resident is not able to act on the applicant's or resident's own behalf, the person interviewed to obtain financial information must be, in order of priority, the applicant's or resident's legal representative or spouse, if any.
