SCR 24 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Proposes constitutional amendment to increase amount of annual veterans' property tax deduction from $250 to $1,250.

SCR 24 proposes a constitutional amendment to increase New Jersey's annual property tax deduction for veterans from $250 to $1,250, effective 2024. It directly affects honorably discharged veterans and their surviving spouses who reside in New Jersey. The key mechanism adjusts the deduction amount annually (cancelling taxes if below $1,250) and extends eligibility to surviving spouses after a veteran's death. This amendment requires voter approval at the next general election to take effect.
