Senator Carmen Amato, Jr., Assemblyman Brian Rumpf, and Assemblyman Gregory Myhre have announced that the New Jersey Treasury will soon begin distributing combined property tax relief applications to seniors.

The New Jersey Department of the Treasury has stated that seniors can apply for the Senior Freeze, ANCHOR, and StayNJ programs using a single application. It is expected that over one million households in New Jersey will receive this new application. The form will also be accessible online by mid-February at propertytaxrelief.nj.gov.

The 9th Legislative Delegation released a statement: “Our delegation continues to prioritize property tax relief for our constituency, largely consisting of senior citizens who simply want the ability to afford to stay in their home. This combined property tax relief application announced by the Treasury will make it easier for residents to take advantage of property tax relief benefits. As we approach this year’s budget season, we are committed to fully funding these critical property tax relief programs.”

Residents of the 9th Legislative District who do not receive an application or need assistance with the process are advised to contact the Amato-Rumpf-Myhre legislative district office at [email protected].
