Seniors/Social Security Disability Benefit Recipients (Homeowners, Renters, and Mobile Home Owners)

New in 2025 — Single Combined Application: A single combined application (Form PAS-1) for the Senior Freeze (Property Tax Reimbursement), ANCHOR, and Stay NJ programs for residents 65 and over, or those collecting Social Security disability benefits. The information in your PAS-1 application will determine your eligibility and a letter will be sent at the end of the year with the specific benefits you qualify for.

Application booklets (Form PAS-1) have been mailed. The State will not automatically file the PAS-1 for taxpayers 65 or older, or those receiving Social Security disability benefits. You must file the PAS-1 application on your own — online or by paper. This includes senior residents who qualify only for the ANCHOR Program. You must file the PAS-1 to receive the ANCHOR benefit.
