THIS JUST IN – THE CHECK IS IN THE MAIL!

State Treasurer David Rousseau has announced that eligible non-senior, non-disabled homeowners (under age 65 and not disabled as of December 31, 2007) who filed an application for the NJ Homestead Rebate by August 15 can expect to receive their 2007 rebate checks in a mailing that went out yesterday (Sept 15).

Those who requested direct deposit will have their rebates deposited directly into their bank accounts.

Homeowners with incomes of $100,000 or less will receive 20 percent of the first $10,000 of property taxes paid in 2006; those whose incomes are between $100,001 and $150,000 will receive 10 percent of the first $10,000 of property taxes paid in 2006. Those with income over $150,000 are not eligible for the rebate this year.

The Treasurer also noted that applications for the NJ Homestead Rebate are still being accepted.
