(b) The exemption provided for in subsection (a) shall be subject to the following:

(3)
That the exemption shall not be allowed on more than one house for any
one person.
(4)
That a person living on premises, a portion of which is used for
commercial purposes, shall not be entitled to an exemption with respect

portion used exclusively as a home; provided, that this exemption shall
not apply to any structure, including the land thereunder, which is used
for commercial purposes.
(5)
That a widow or widower of a disabled veteran may apply for an
exemption and the exemption may be granted even if the disabled
veteran did not apply for and obtain the exemption provided for in

widower submits proof satisfactory to the director that, at the time of the
veteran’s death, the veteran would have qualified for an exemption
under this section.
(c) For the purposes of this section, the word "home" includes the entire
homestead when it is occupied by a qualified totally disabled veteran or the

agreement by which the disabled veteran agrees to purchase the same for a
residence, where the agreement has been duly entered into and recorded
prior to October 1st preceding the tax year for which the exemption is claimed,
whereby the purchaser agrees to pay all taxes while purchasing the premises.
(d) The exemption shall take effect beginning with the next tax payment date,
provided that the claimant shall have filed with the department a claim for a
disability exemption along with a copy of a physician’s certificate of disability
on such form as the department shall prescribe on or before June 30 for the
first payment or December 31 for the second payment.
