Coming Soon: Tentative Roll Corrections Report (Report #4)
In the upcoming days, we expect to publish Report #4 for those municipalities that provided their tentative roll files to ORPTS on a timely basis (by May 10). We’ll let you know when it’s available. To get ready, we encourage you to review the instructions.
STAR letters going out to homeowners this month
We’re mailing the following to impacted STAR recipients this month:
RP-425-RDS: Homeowners receiving this letter had 2023 income exceeding $250,000 and are no longer eligible for the STAR exemption. We were able to switch the homeowners with income below $500,000 to the STAR credit without them taking any action. Recipients of this letter do not need to take any action unless they disagree with our income determination. See the text of the letter.
RP-5310-DLPR: We are unable to confirm this property is the primary residence of any of the owners. Therefore, the homeowners are not eligible for the STAR credit on this property. See the text of the letter.
RP-5310-DLI: Our records indicate that the homeowner’s income is greater than the maximum income limit for the STAR credit. See the text of the letter.
RP-5310-WSP: We are not able to confirm homeowners meet the income requirements for a STAR credit based on the information we have on file. Recipients of this letter should follow the instructions to provide their income information using the Homeowner Benefit Portal or our online Income Worksheet. See the text of the letter.
