STAR forms for 2023 rolls now available

Now that we’ve passed the last taxable status dates for 2022 rolls, the STAR exemption forms for the 2023-2024 school year are available online:

ICYMI: STAR Credit Eligible Report (Report #8) now available

On Wednesday, we announced that Report 8 is available. See the announcement for details. 

Requesting tax rates from school districts

School tax rates are crucial to calculate STAR credits. We recently sent this email blast to school officials across the state (except New York City). Our team will also reach out to school districts individually if we don’t receive the tax rates promptly.

Reminder: Review your sales reports

If you haven’t already done so, please review your sales reports in the Online Assessment Community. The deadline to transmit sales corrections is September 2, so don’t delay. Your timely review is very important because we’ll use the sales data to begin the process of calculating 2023 equalization rates and RARs.

For more information, see Sales usability criteria.

On the arms-length report, there is a column which indicates whether the sale is COD/RAR usable. If you find a mistake or need to correct a sale, follow these instructions:

  • RPS users: within your RPS file, make the correction and then re-transmit it by going to Standard Reports > Sales > Sales Transmittal Report. Please email the RPS035 to ORPTS.saleint@tax.ny.gov. The ORPTS sales database and online sales reports will be updated with the corrections.
  • If you submit paper reports, use Form RP-5217 ACR, Sale Correction Form. Email the completed forms to ORPTS.saleint@tax.ny.gov or mail them to:
