Suppose $A$ is an abelian torsion group with a subgroup $G$ such that $A/G$ is countable that is, in other words, $A$ is a torsion countable abelian extension of $G$. A problem of some group-theoretic interest is that of whether $G \in \mathbb K$, a class of abelian groups, does imply that $A\in \mathbb K$. The aim of the present paper is to settle the question for certain kinds of groups, thus extending a classical result due to Wallace (J. Algebra, 1981) proved when $\mathbb K$ coincides with the class of all totally projective $p$-groups.
