A 750 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Authorizes veterans to deduct two years military service from age requirement for police officer under certain circumstances.

New Jersey Assembly Bill A750 (A750) modifies age requirements for police officer applicants by allowing veterans to deduct up to two years of military service from their age. It directly affects veterans over 35 who served at least 10 days during a time of war, enabling them to qualify if their adjusted age (actual age minus military service) equals 35 or less. The bill amends N.J.S.40A:14-127 to establish this deduction as a specific exception to the existing maximum age limit of 35. This creates a clearer, capped mechanism for veterans to meet age requirements without altering the base eligibility criteria.
