Frequently asked questions

Do I mail these documents with my PAS-1?

Generally no — you keep them. The application asks for figures from these documents, and the state requests copies by letter only when something needs verification (most often first-time base-year proof). Online filers never attach anything up front.

What's the single most important document on this list?

For first-time Senior Freeze claimants: your base-year property tax bill — it sets the reference amount every future reimbursement is measured against, and it’s the document the state most often asks to see. Keep it permanently. See the base year explained.

Is my checklist saved if I come back later?

No — like all our tools, it runs entirely in your browser and resets when you leave. Use the Print button to keep a copy on paper (or print to PDF).
