Overview
This bill allows New Jersey municipalities to waive interest charges on certain delinquent property tax payments delivered after the required due date. Specifically, it permits waivers if a paper check, properly mailed and postmarked, is delayed in delivery due to postal service issues. The bill also provides for potential waivers for taxpayers who are federal government employees or contractors experiencing delays due to a federal shutdown, and for taxpayers residing with eligible family members also affected by a shutdown. Municipalities must provide notice of any changes to interest rates and may extend payment deadlines under certain circumstances.
