CMS has just released an announcement of the resource limits for the Part D Low Income Subsidy (LIS/Extra Help) in 2019:

The 2019 resource limits are $7,730 ($11,600 if married) for the full low-income subsidy and $12,890 ($25,720 if married) for the partial subsidies (not including the $1500 personal set aside for burial expenses).

The income limits for LIS will be changed following the release of 2019 Federal Poverty Level data, usually in late January/February.
