Final reminder: Run your 2025 Assessor’s Report as final before submitting the roll to us
Within ten days of publishing your final roll, please ensure that you use the Upload Files tool in the Online Assessment Community to transmit your final roll and assessor’s report to ORPTS.
Do not submit your roll to ORPTS in PDF format. Upload a copy of your RPSv4 database or—if you do not use RPSv4—a 15-c file. Note: When using the Upload Files tool, we strongly encourage you to use Google Chrome.
RPSV4 users: Before you generate your final roll file, run your assessor’s report and ensure that you’ve selected the Final AR checkbox under Create Option. We’ve received several rolls where the database processing flags were not set to Final and were still in edit status. This could cause a delay in the reconciliation of the assessor’s report and the establishment of the equalization rate.
When you submit your final roll to ORPTS, please include a backup of the database file that was used to run the final assessor's report.
For details, see Roll submission information.
If you have questions, contact your ORPTS customer service team.
Enhanced STAR income limit for 2026
The Enhanced STAR income limit for 2026 will be $110,750 (see Historical Enhanced STAR income limits).
Note: Among the provisions to simplify the STAR program in the 2025-2026 Enacted State Budget, beginning in 2026, the Enhanced STAR income limit will apply only to the combined incomes of the owners and their spouses who primarily reside on the property. (For the 2025 benefit year and prior years, the Enhanced STAR income limit applied to the combined incomes of all owners (residents and non-residents), and any owner's spouse who resided at the property).
