New Jersey Treasury Begins Mailing Senior Freeze Reimbursement Checks to Over 188,000 Seniors New Jersey’s Division of Taxation has started mailing Senior Freeze property tax reimbursement checks to more than 188,000 qualifying seniors, with additional rounds of payments to follow for eligible applicants, the state Treasury announced today. The first round of checks for Tax Year 2025, totaling more than $220 million, went out July 15. Payments will continue on a rolling basis to seniors who applied through the PAS-1 application, which allows residents to apply for three property tax relief programs — Senior Freeze, ANCHOR and Stay NJ — in a single filing. The deadline to file the PAS-1 application for Tax Year 2025 is Nov. 2, 2026. The Senior Freeze program reimburses qualifying seniors and disabled residents for increases in property taxes or mobile home park site fees on their principal residences. The program works by establishing a base year of eligibility and “freezing” the property tax at that level, comparing it to subsequent years. The state then refunds the difference annually.
