The spouse of any veteran who is eligible to become a member of the State Veterans' Home, may be admitted with the veteran if they have been married and living together for at least one year before application for admission and if their combined income does not exceed four hundred dollars per year above the maximum income limitation allowable for pension benefits as determined by the Veterans Administration. Or, a spouse may be admitted if the veteran, otherwise eligible to admission, is institutionalized for physical or mental disability, if the spouse has been married to the veteran spouse for at least one year.
