The Senior Freeze Program reimburses eligible senior citizens and disabled persons for property tax or mobile home park site fee increases on their principal residence. To qualify, you must meet all the eligibility requirements for each year from the base year through the application year (the current application year is 2019).

Note: Any changes to the eligibility requirements (i.e., Income Limits) and benefit amounts are subject to change each year in the annual state appropriations act (State Budget).

Applications are scheduled to be mailed beginning in mid-February and they are typically mailed to the last address you filed with. If you do not receive your booklet by early March, contact our Senior Freeze Property Tax Reimbursement Information Line for assistance at 1-800-882-6597.
