A 4674 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Revises criteria to establish base year for homestead property tax reimbursement after relocation.

This bill updates the rules for determining the base year used to calculate homestead property tax reimbursements for eligible New Jersey residents who relocate. It directly affects seniors and disabled individuals who own or rent their primary residence and meet specific income requirements. The key change clarifies that when an eligible claimant moves to a new home, the base year for tax reimbursement calculations will be the first full tax year before they live in the new property, with exceptions for new construction and continuity for those who previously received the credit. The legislation also maintains existing eligibility criteria regarding age, disability status, and income limits while preserving the base year for those already receiving the Stay NJ property tax credit.
