The Tax Department launched a new Basic STAR Registration program to protect New Yorkers against the costs of inappropriate and fraudulent STAR exemptions. This initiative is a result of new legislation which requires all homeowners currently receiving a Basic STAR exemption to register with the Tax Department in order to continue to receive the tax benefit in 2014 and subsequent years.

The links below will provide you and your colleagues with up-to-date information on the program:

• Fact sheet with details about the program
• Mailing schedule listing when registration letters will be sent to homeowners in each county
• Media Center for the latest graphics, handouts, videos, and event listings

If you have questions:

• local officials should contact the Office of Real Property Tax Services STAR Unit - orpts.star@tax.ny.gov or  (518) 474-2819
• homeowners call (518) 457-2036
