Before BENTON, BOWMAN, and SHEPHERD, Circuit Judges.
. Nancy A. Berryhill has been appointed to serve as Acting Commissioner of Social Security, and is substituted as appellee pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 43(c).

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Xiaoyong An O'Neal appeals an order of the district court affirming the Commissioner's denial of supplemental security income (SSI) following a hearing before an administrative law judge (ALJ). O'Neal argues that the ALJ erred in determining that she is financially ineligible to receive SSI benefits because she is a single individual with "countable resources" in excess of the statutory $2,000 limit. See 42 U.S.C. § 1382(a); 20 C.F.R. § 416.1201. Having jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, this court affirms.
Following de novo review, this court finds no legal error and concludes that substantial evidence in the record as a whole supports the ALJ's determination. See Draper v. Colvin, 779 F.3d 556, 559 (8th Cir. 2015).
The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
. The Honorable E. Richard Webber, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable John M. Boden-hausen, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri.
