School Tax Relief (STAR) program applications available The Deer Park School District announced that New York State homeowners can now apply for a Middle Class property tax rebate program. The 2007 School Tax Relief Program (STAR) awards homeowners based on their local property tax burden and income levels. This year's STAR rebate check is based not only on your property tax burden, but also on your ability to pay, factoring in your income level. Starting July 16, the Tax Department will begin mailing letters alerting homeowners who receive the basic STAR exemption of the need to apply and provide income information to receive this year's Middle Class STAR rebate. In order to apply, eligible homeowners should visit the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance's Website at http://www.nystax.gov/ to access an application, verify the information provided, complete the names and social security numbers for all owners and spouses, and submit or mail the application before the November 30th deadline.
For additional information and answers to frequently asked questions about the STAR Rebate Program call, 1-877-6STAR NY (1-877-678-2769) or visit www.nystax.gov.
