Here's the deal...
You are 20 miles or so from your destination airport. 4,000 ft. airport elevation is 850. its a VFR airport(no approaches)
ATC says Cleared to cruise KXXX airport. How low can you go leagaly under IFR? You are already at the MVA for the area. The MSA on the sectional is 2400. If you are in the clouds how low can you go? Obviously if its good viz you can cancel IFR and got to 500 AGL.
