Mailing to seniors who may be missing out on Enhanced STAR

To help seniors who may be missing the benefits of the Enhanced STAR program, we send letter RP-425-MBE to Basic STAR exemption recipients who appear to be eligible for the Enhanced STAR exemption based on our records. The letter instructs the property owner to:

• review the eligibility requirements,
• apply to their assessor if they believe they’re eligible, and
• to call our department if they have questions.
