Which category completes the statement: Only one $250 deduction per property is allowed for claimants who are ________ __________ and ______?

• A. Senior, Disabled, Surviving Spouse
• B. Senior, Disabled, Unemployed
• C. Disabled, Surviving Spouse, Elderly
• D. Senior, Surviving Spouse, Widow

Answer: (A)

The rule being tested here is that the $250 deduction per property is limited and applies to claimants who are in one of the specified categories: Senior, Disabled, or Surviving Spouse. The key point is that the deduction is per property, not per qualifying person, so even if more than one person on the same property fits those statuses, you can claim only one $250 deduction for that property. The three qualifying statuses—Senior, Disabled, and Surviving Spouse—are the recognized categories for this deduction, which is why that option is the best fit. For example, if a property has a senior owner and a surviving spouse, you still take only one $250 deduction for that property. Other choices include statuses not aligned with the defined qualifiers, such as Unemployed or terms like Widow, which do not match the specified set.
