Property Tax Reimbursement (Senior Freeze) program filing deadline is June 1, 2017

Mayor Santos recently reminded Kearny residents that the due date for filing this year’s Property Tax Reimbursement Applications (also known as Senior Freeze) is June 1, 2017. Under the Property Tax Reimbursement Program, eligible senior citizens and disabled persons are reimbursed by the State for the difference between the amount of local property taxes paid in the year they became eligible and first filed for the program and the amount of property taxes paid for the reimbursement year. This is a program designed to assist senior citizens and disabled persons with limited incomes.
