TRENTON, N.J. — The New Jersey Division of Taxation has begun mailing out 2025 Senior Freeze property tax reimbursement checks to eligible residents, officials announced Thursday.
Senator Carmen Amato Jr., Assemblyman Brian Rumpf, and Assemblyman Gregory Myhre of the 9th Legislative District said more than 125,000 seniors statewide are expected to receive payments this year. The increase comes as a result of expanded eligibility and a streamlined application process.
Eligible seniors and disabled residents can now apply for all major state property tax relief programs — including Senior Freeze, ANCHOR, and Stay NJ — through a single form, known as PAS-1.
“Our office is committed to helping residents navigate the PAS-1 process,” the delegation stated, noting ongoing outreach efforts to senior communities across the district.
The Senior Freeze program reimburses eligible homeowners for property tax increases, allowing fixed-income residents to remain in their homes despite rising costs.
