Requires application for homestead property tax reimbursement to be filed with NJ gross income tax return.

Bill A1124 requires applicants for New Jersey's homestead property tax reimbursement to submit their application as part of their annual New Jersey gross income tax return, rather than as a separate filing. This change directly affects eligible claimants - seniors (65+), disabled individuals, or homeowners/renters meeting income limits ($92,969 or less gross income for 2022+ tax years) - who own or rent a primary residence in New Jersey. The bill amends existing law to integrate the reimbursement application process with the state income tax filing system. It does not alter eligibility criteria, benefit amounts, or income thresholds, only the submission method. This simplifies the process for applicants but does not change who qualifies for the reimbursement.
