7/01/08 Property Tax Relief Programs The Division of Taxation is now in the process of mailing 2007 homestead rebate applications to homeowners who are under age 65 and who are not disabled. This is the second of two mailings for the program this year; applications were mailed in May to homeowners who were senior citizens (age65 or older) or disabled.

The current mailing of application packets will be staggered over a two-week period starting July 3, 2008. The deadline for filing these applications is August 15, 2008.

Some senior and disabled homeowners may receive an application packet in this mailing, even though they have already filed for the 2007 homestead rebate. Homeowners who have already filed their applications online or by phone and received a confirmation number, or who have completed and mailed in a paper application, should not file again.

The FAIR homeowner rebate application delivery dates by county are:
