Is a Lien placed against my property?

Yes. Idaho Code 31-3504(4) provides that:

"Upon application for financial assistance an automatic lien shall attach to all real and personal property of the applicant and on insurance benefits to which the applicant may become entitled." The lien shall also attach to any additional resources to which it may legally attach not covered.
