Verification Forms
Applicants who cannot locate their property tax bills or proof of the amount of property taxes (or mobile home site fees) paid may submit with the reimbursement application a verification form which has been completed and verified by their tax collector or the owner or manager of their mobile home park. Applicants filing Form PTR-1 will use the verification Form PTR-1A (homeowners) or PTR-1B (mobile home owners). Applicants filing Form PTR-2 will use the verification Form PTR-2A or PTR-2B.
