A 3515 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires senior housing applications be made available by mail and email.

This bill requires housing providers of age-restricted senior units (for residents 55+) to provide application forms by mail or email upon a prospective resident's request. It directly affects seniors who face barriers with online applications or in-person submissions, ensuring they can access required forms in their preferred format. The key provision mandates that providers must send copies of all necessary forms via mail or email when requested, complying with federal fair housing rules for senior housing. The Commissioner of Community Affairs will create implementing rules, and the law takes effect two months after enactment.
