State tax filing

Usually, your lawyer provides you with the property key when you close on your home. However, this is not required to complete the registration for the STAR credit. 

 

You will need the following information to register for the STAR credit: 

  • names and Social Security numbers for all owners of the property and their spouses
  • the primary residence of the owners and their spouses 
  • approximate date the owners purchased the property and the name of the sellers (this information is not required)
  • the most recent school tax bill, if the current owners received one
  • address of any residential property owned in another state 
  • the legal name of the trust, if applicable 
  • 2019 federal or state income tax returns for all owners
