Changes in <br />respect to income, financial worth, ownership of <br />property or other factors occuring during the taxable <br />year for which the affidavit is filed, and having the <br />effect of exceeding or violating the limitations and <br />conditions provided herein shall nullify any <br />exemptions for the then current taxable year and the <br />taxable year immediately following. <br /> <br />(e) In the event the person or persons claiming exemption <br />qualify therefor, the amount of said exemption shall <br />be as shown on the following schedule: <br /> <br />Total Income <br />From All Sources <br /> <br />Tax <br />Exemption <br /> <br />o <br />$ 6,001 <br />$ 7,001 <br />$ 8,001 <br />$ 9,001 <br />$10,001 <br />$11 ,001 <br /> <br />- $ 6,000 <br />- $ 7,000 <br />- $ 8,000 <br />- $ 9,000 <br />$10,000 <br />- $11,000 <br />- $12,000 <br /> <br />80% <br />70% <br />60% <br />50% <br />40% <br />30% <br />20% <br /> <br />However, a change in property ownership to a spouse (a <br />qualifying person to a non-qualifying person), when such <br />change resulted solely from the death of the qualifying <br />individual, or a sale of such property shall result in a <br />prorated exemption of such relief granted for the then <br />current taxable year.
