Bill Summary

This bill expands eligibility for the property tax reimbursement program to include individuals who do not work and are retired on a disability retirement under the Police and Firemen's Retirement System of New Jersey (PFRS). Under current law, disabled persons receiving Social Security Disability benefits are eligible for the property tax reimbursement program, but not those disabled individuals who have retired under the PFRS.

AI Summary

This bill expands eligibility for the property tax reimbursement program to include individuals who are retired on a disability retirement under the Police and Firemen's Retirement System of New Jersey (PFRS), in addition to individuals receiving Social Security Disability benefits, who currently qualify. The bill amends the definition of "disabled person" in the existing law to include those retired on a PFRS disability retirement, provided they do not earn additional employment income for the year they are claiming the reimbursement.
