2007 Middle Class STAR Rebate Program

The deadline to apply for the 2007 Middle Class STAR Rebate Program was December 31, 2007.

I already applied for my rebate. When will I receive my check? Middle Class STAR applications are processed upon receipt and rebate checks are issued quickly for most homeowners.

Issuance of some rebate checks may take longer if we are unable to systematically process an application because:
  • the information on the application either did not match the property information provided to us using local assessment rolls; or
  • the information did not match the income tax return data in our records.
We are able to resolve most cases and issue the rebate check using a manual review process without further action by the homeowner. However, the manual process is time consuming and is the reason some have not yet received a rebate.

It is our responsibility to ensure that we issue checks only to eligible individuals and accurately determine the income for the property owners in order to provide the correct rebate amount. We are processing applications as quickly as we can. We apologize for any delay you are experiencing and appreciate your continued patience.
I receive an enhanced STAR exemption, but did not receive a rebate. What should I do? Please contact us at 1-877-678-2769.
