I did mine online back in October. The status says it's in the final approval stages.

I did mine online and says:

I mailed mine in January. Online says that it still hasn’t been received, but when I called them directly they told me that they had my application and that it hadn’t yet been processed.

I didn't know you could check the status! Thanks for sharing the link.
I mailed mine in January and was hoping it would get there, so I'm glad to see that it is officially "Received" although it hasn't yet progressed past that point.

The website very clearly stated that you should not expect a payment until "late spring."
If you mailed your application, it will probably take even longer than those applications filed online.

How do you check?
Cashneto t1_jdcvswe wrote
You should call and check. I mailed mine in December and it was "lost" I called several times and eventually mailed it certified in late January. Called several times again and they finally found it. I then had to call again to have an online profile set up so I could check the status online. Gotta love the government!

I filed mine online in December, and I can see via that link it has been approved and the dollar amount. Thanks for the link!

Random question because this was the first time I filed. Why are we just now filing for 2019? Is there that much of a gap?

Awesome. Thanks for the link

I’ve heard they won’t even begin to start issuing the payments until May

I heard May is when distribution will go into affect.

Would like to know too! I didn’t file because all the dates on the paper were completely off, my mother is a windower since 2022 and none of these dates made sense.

The benefit and income limits are much higher for 2019 because of Covid money from the federal government.
Most likely you wouldn’t have qualified in previous years, plus the benefit would have been much lower
pdills12 t1_jddphzn wrote
That I get I was more asking why are we filing 2019 in 2022? I assumed it was like taxes where your filing for the previous year or has there always been like a 2-3 year gap in filing years?

Online the only reference is very vague: “late in the spring”.

I’m glad I’m not the only one wondering.

They’re still on the “hamster wheel” computer system you’ll remember from Covid days.

Picture dozens of rusty hamster wheels in an old wooden wearhouse in Camden, grinding away at the huge stacks of punch cards.

I think this replaces the Homestead Benefit Act which ended at 2018. So the next year would be 2019. NJ Homestead Benefit. It actually mentions it there.

My accountant said sometime in May

I mailed mine the day before the deadline and it says application received.

I read they won’t be doing payments till April
jonnyds91 t1_jdfv8hy wrote
Yep mine says the same in addition to the amount I’m getting back.

how is it paid out? mine is "processing" but i have moved so i dont recall if i entered the benefit location or the new location
michelem387 t1_jdckk7k wrote
I mailed the paper application in November and mine still says Processing. I'm not surprised by that though, I think payments are starting around May.
