A 4432 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Extends from October 31 to December 31 deadline to file combined application for ANCHOR, homestead property tax reimbursement, and Stay NJ property tax benefits.

This bill extends the annual deadline for New Jersey residents to submit a single combined application for three property tax benefits: the ANCHOR program (for homeowners), homestead property tax reimbursement (for seniors), and Stay NJ (for residents who remain in the state). Currently, applications must be filed by October 31 each year; this bill changes the deadline to December 31. The change directly affects residents applying for these specific tax relief programs, giving them an additional two months to complete and submit their applications. The bill amends existing law to adjust this filing window without altering the benefit calculations or eligibility criteria.
