SOMA TWO TOWNS FOR ALL AGES HAS
PTR-1 APPLICATIONS AVAILABLE FOR FIRST TIME OR PREVIOUSLY DENIED APPLICANTS
 FOR SENIOR FREEZE PROPERTY TAX REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAM.
Deadline Date to file is November 1, 2021!

The Senior Freeze Property Tax Reimbursement Program reimburses homeowners, who are age 65 or older, or receiving Social Security disability benefits, and who paid property taxes on their principal residence in New Jersey directly or through mobile home park site fees, for property tax increases on their main home. Income eligibility has increased so more people are now eligible. For more information on eligibility for this program, please visit https://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxation/ptr/printform.shtml or call 1-800-882-6597.  

Form PTR-2 is a personalized application that is mailed by the agency to those who filed an application and met all the eligibility requirements for a reimbursement the previous year. Form PTR-2 is not available on their website nor does SOMA Two Towns have copies.
