Expands eligibility for disabled veterans' property tax exemption to include certain individuals with close personal relationship to deceased veteran.

S 204 expands New Jersey's disabled veterans' property tax exemption to include certain individuals who had a close personal relationship with a deceased veteran, such as long-term partners who lived with the veteran for three years. The bill requires applicants to prove shared residence, joint financial responsibility (e.g., joint bank accounts or property ownership), and submit an affidavit with supporting documents. This allows these individuals to claim the exemption on the veteran's home if they are the legal owner and occupant. The change applies to veterans who die after the bill's effective date, broadening eligibility beyond traditional surviving spouses.
