350.0000 DISABLED VETERANS' EXEMPTION

Annotation 350.0022

350.0022 Qualification of Unmarried Surviving Spouse—Delayed Finding by DVA. An unmarried surviving spouse of a deceased member of the armed services timely filed for the disabled veterans' exemption, but was found ineligible solely for lack of a determination by the Department of Veterans' Affairs that the death was service-connected. Later, the Department issued its determination of death was service related and backdated the determination to a date prior to the date of the filing of the claim. The claim should be reconsidered and allowed in light of the Department's determination, assuming all other requirements for the exemption are met. C 5/5/1997.
