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.
