Notice from the Town of New Hartford
Assessors Office
Changes to the STAR program and STAR forms for 2026
The 2025-2026 Enacted State Budget included several provisions to simplify the
STAR program for NYS homeowners, including no longer requiring homeowners
to apply to their assessor for the Enhanced STAR exemption. (65 and older and 2024
adjusted gross income less than $110,750 – ex: Form 1040 line 11 minus 4B)
Because of this, the following forms have been removed from the state website and
will no longer be accepted in the assessor office.
· Form RP-425-B, Application for Basic STAR Exemption
· Form RP-425-E, Application for Enhanced STAR Exemption
· Form RP-425-IVP, Supplement to Form RP-425-E
You can let the homeowner know the state will notify them, and the assessors’ office,
if they qualify for an Enhanced STAR exemption. If we need more information to
determine eligibility, such as in cases of someone who does not file an income tax
return, then the state will send a letter to them requesting information.
