State tax filing

I greatly appreciate your willingness to help and your quick response.  I have to ask for more clarification.   Your response says, " The credit is available to any senior citizen who doesn't have a property tax exemption available only to those who have owned and lived in their quarters for 10 years or more or have a disabled veterans property tax exemption."  

Please clarify your response.   Something is missing in the response. 

It says the credit is available to any senior citizen and then goes on to say the credit is available to only those who have "owned and lived in their quarters for 10 years or more." 

Again, by way of background - my mother lives with me. She does not own a home.  She is not eligible for a property tax exemption since she doesn't own a home.  When I select "no" it results in a large state refund to her. Makes no sense.  I will answer the question appropriately when I file my state returns- but for now - I need to get her filing done.  

"Was your primary residence exempt from property tax? "  Greatly appreciate your help.  None of us want to get this wrong - knowing full well what the consequences might be.
