STAR Exemption Update

*** STAR UPDATE ***

Homeowners will no longer be required to submit an application to the assessor if they had an ownership change or if they aged into the Enhanced STAR exemption. This does NOT apply to the Low Income Senior Citizen Exemption RP467.

Property owners will report it to the NYS Tax Department using the Homeowner Benefit Portal at www.tax.ny.gov.

If internet access is not available you may contact NYS at (518) 457-2036

New York State will notify local assessors of Basic STAR recipients who become eligible for Enhanced STAR (rather than requiring seniors to apply to their assessors).
