NO CASH payments should be placed in this box.
*** If you purchase a property in Keyport that has a Senior Citizen/Disabled Person/Surviving Spouse deduction, please be sure to have the previous owner sign a PD-5 (Post Tax Year Income Statement) at your closing. If the Tax Office does not receive this form the owner of the property, at the time the deduction is disallowed, is responsible to pay back the $250.00 deduction. If you have this form signed you will only be responsible to pay back a pro-rated amount, based on date of sale, instead of the entire $250.00. (N.J.S.A. 54:4-8:40 et seq.; L.1963, c.1972 as amended)
