I qualify for this exemption under Florida law. I am a permanent resident of the State of Florida and I own and occupy the
property above. Under s. 196.131(2), F.S., any person who knowingly and willfully gives false information to claim
homestead exemption is guilty of a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable by a term of imprisonment up to 1 year or
a fine up to $5,000 or both. Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have read this application and Statement of
Adjusted Gross Income and the facts in it are true.
