}Check which senior-benefit programs a person likely qualifies for, using a deterministic rule engine tied to cited .gov sources — no AI guessing. Only age and zip_code are required; every extra field provided turns needs-more-info programs into definite answers. Include marital_status whenever known — many programs' income limits depend on it, so it resolves far more programs than most fields. The full guided check at https://discoverseniorbenefits.com/scan covers additional signals.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| age* | integer | Age of the person the check is for. |
| is_blind | boolean | |
| zip_code* | string | 5-digit US ZIP code. |
| homeownership | string | |
| is_us_citizen | boolean | |
| household_size | integer | |
| marital_status | string | High-leverage: several income limits are set per single vs. couple, so those programs stay needs-more-info until this is provided. |
| veteran_status |
| string |
| Whether the person, spouse, or deceased spouse served. |
| wartime_service | boolean | 90+ days active duty with at least one day in a VA wartime period. |
| disability_status | boolean |
