One category where people are always or usually poor but who may sometimes have little more money are grouped together as :

Chronic Poor

The correct answer is option (1) : Chronic Poor

Categorising Poverty: There are many ways to categorise poverty. In one such way people who are always poor and those who are usually poor but who may sometimes have a little more money (example: casual workers) are grouped together as the chronic poor. Another group are the churning poor who regularly move in and out of poverty (example: small farmers and seasonal workers) and the occasionally poor who are rich most of the time but may sometimes have a patch of bad luck. They are called the transient poor. And then, there are those who are never poor and they are the non-poor.
