07-31-25 We are expecting the 2024 ANCHOR program to begin by mid-August and we will begin filing /confirming applications for those elective taxpayers as soon as the process is available. The State will be issuing letters to previous ANCHOR recipients regarding data on file beginning 08-13-25. Though not required, we strongly recommend that taxpayers forward a copy of this notice ASAP to our office by mail, delivery, fax or pdf upon receipt. Once the filing program has been completed, we will advise all elective taxpayers that their application has been filed.
Most ANCHOR benefits are expected to be issued by 11-30-25 but the latest available release date will stretch into 2026 depending on individual factors and we will advise on same as the program unfolds.
For those elective homeowner taxpayers who are age 66 as of 12-31-24 or over (and/or disabled), your 2024 ANCHOR application has already been filed by our office and no additional action is required.
The 2022 and 2023 ANCHOR programs have been cancelled. The last issued ANCHOR benefit was for tax year 2021 which, in most cases, was issued by 05-31-25.
