Every Guide Is Now Live — Senior Freeze, Stay NJ, PAS-1, and 3 Free Tools
NJ Programs now covers every New Jersey property tax relief program in full: complete guides to the Senior Freeze (including the new $172,475 income limit and the 3-year rule that replaced the old 10-year residency requirement), Stay NJ (the 50% senior benefit capped at $6,500), and Form PAS-1 — alongside our existing ANCHOR coverage and side-by-side program comparisons.
We also launched three free interactive tools: an eligibility checker that applies all three programs' 2025 rules in a two-minute quiz, a relief calculator that estimates your combined ANCHOR + Senior Freeze + Stay NJ benefit using the state's published formulas, and a PAS-1 checklist builder that generates a printable document list for your filing. Every tool runs entirely in your browser — nothing you enter is sent or stored.
One date to remember this season: the PAS-1 filing deadline for the 2025 benefit year is November 2, 2026. If you're 65 or older, or receive Social Security disability benefits, that one filing covers all three programs.
