Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's analyze Family B based on the mandatory criteria:
* Condition A: The family has members (satisfies at least 4), but it contains two married couples (Grandfather-Grandmother and Son-Daughter-in-law). Condition A clearly states there must be "only one married couple in it".
Since Family B violates a core mandatory condition (Condition A) and there are no provisos or exceptions provided for condition A, the application must be rejected.
* Condition A: The family has members (satisfies at least 4), but it contains two married couples (Grandfather-Grandmother and Son-Daughter-in-law). Condition A clearly states there must be "only one married couple in it".
Since Family B violates a core mandatory condition (Condition A) and there are no provisos or exceptions provided for condition A, the application must be rejected.
