ACR 32 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Proposes constitutional amendment to grant certain senior citizens property tax credit equal to 50 percent of property tax bill on primary residence.

ACR 32 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring New Jersey to create a property tax credit for seniors. It would provide a 50% credit on primary residence property taxes (capped at $10,000 annually) for residents aged 65 or older, with no income restrictions. The credit would be paid directly by the state to the municipality where the home is located, and surviving spouses who meet age and residency requirements would retain the credit. This amendment, if approved by voters, would enshrine this tax relief permanently in the state constitution.
