TM
Department of Finance
This Checklist can be used only if your property has been included in the Lien Sale. If not, and you wish
to apply for personal exemptions, please use the Exemption Application for Owners, available at
nyc.gov/finance or by calling 311.
SENIORS, VETERANS, ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY
PERSONNEL AND PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
Who Own and Live in 1- to 3-Family Houses or Residential Condos
Our records show that you owe property taxes, water
charges or ERP/AEP charges. If you do not contact us by
May 16, 2013, the City could sell a lien on your property.
If you are a senior, person with a disability or veteran (or
a relative of a veteran), or if you or a relative is on active
military duty, you may qualify for a property tax exemp-
tion in future years and may avoid having your debt sold.
Your property may also be excluded from the sale if you
received the New York State Real Property Tax Credit
for Homeowners (the "Circuit Breaker" credit) for Tax
Year 2012.
PLEASE FILL OUT THE FORM ON THE
REVERSE SIDE AND MAIL TODAY!
For questions about property tax exemptions,
please call 311 (outside New York City call
