S 137 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Increases income eligibility limit for homestead property tax reimbursement program.

This bill increases the income eligibility limit for New Jersey's homestead property tax reimbursement program. It raises the annual income cap from $80,000 to $160,000 for qualifying single or married homeowners (or renters) aged 65+ or disabled individuals. The change directly affects low-to-moderate income seniors and disabled residents who own or rent homes as their primary residence. This adjustment expands access to tax reimbursement by allowing higher-earning eligible residents to qualify under the program.
