S 606 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Exempts certain surviving spouses and surviving civil union partners of certain disabled veterans from components of the realty transfer fee.

This bill exempts surviving spouses and surviving civil union partners of disabled veterans from paying property transfer fees when selling a home. To qualify, the veteran must have been completely disabled during active wartime service and qualified for a property tax exemption on their home. The exemption removes both the basic and supplemental fees for qualifying one- or two-family home sales, aligning with existing exemptions for disabled individuals but expanding it to surviving partners. Current law only exempts surviving spouses who are themselves disabled or senior citizens, but this bill extends the benefit to partners of veterans who met the disability criteria.
