| | Veterans' Exemption Q & A |
 | | Unlike the eligible funds veterans' exemption, however, the alternative exemption is limited to the primary residence (including, at local option, cooperative apartment) of a veteran, and is not based on eligible funds. |
 | | Under certain circumstances, the exemption also may be allowed where title is in the name of the dependent parent of the veteran or his or her child who is under 21 years of age. |
 | | In addition, the property for which the exemption is sought must be the primary residence of the veteran, the unremarried surviving spouse, or the Gold Star Parent unless that person is absent from the property due to medical reasons or is institutionalized. |
