The Senior Freeze program reimburses senior citizens and disabled persons for Property Tax increases. For applicants who met all the eligibility requirements for 2016 and again for 2017, the amount of the reimbursement will be the difference between the amount of Property Taxes that were due and paid by the applicant for 2016 and the amount of property Taxes that were due and paid for 2017, as long as the amount paid for 2017 was greater than the amount paid for 2016.
