Conscription: what are my options?

Hi I’ve been searching but with no luck for my case
First want to apologize for my terrible translation of chinese to english

I was born in 1986 and I am a dual citizen, US and Taiwan
I came into Taiwan with my Taiwanese passport in july of 2017
I had read on the government website that I can make no more than 2 mistakes of staying 183 days in a calendar year
But was told recently in a phone call to the military office here in Taoyuan that I can’t stay more than 183 days in 2018, seems like the rules have changed since last year?

I am also a single child of a widowed mother
Can someone tell me what my options are exactly? I have started a business and need to figure out what I have to do because I can’t support my family without working

Thanks

If you can prove you are the sole supporter of your family, you can do 12 days of conscription. Look at my thread about it. I believe it fits in as one of the possible ways to do the 12 days conscription. 12 days a conscript
