If your income is above these limits you may still qualify after deducting certain expenses.

Massachusetts law allows you to keep certain exempt property including up to $500,000 of equity in your home if you use the state homestead exemption. You can also keep one motor vehicle up to $7,500 in value and household goods up to $15,000. Retirement accounts and most government benefits are also protected.
