Property Tax and Interest Deferral (PT AID) Program
The NYC Department of Finance recognizes that an unexpected event or hardship may make it difficult for you to pay your property taxes. If you qualify for the Property Tax and Interest Deferral (PT AID) program, you can defer your property tax payments, or pay only a small percentage of your income, so that you can remain in your home.
Highlights
- The payment of property taxes can be deferred for a fixed length of time for a temporary hardship, or for a longer period due to a chronic hardship.
- The amount you can defer paying is limited to a maximum of 25% of the equity you have in your one-, two-, or three-family home, or up to 50% of the equity of your condominium unit.
- Unpaid debt continues to accrue interest (currently 5%).
- There are three payment plan options: the Low-Income Senior (LIS), Fixed-Term Income-Based (FTI), and Extenuating Circumstances Income-Based (ECI) payment agreements.
Available Plans
Senior homeowners experiencing hardship can fully or partially defer payment of their delinquent and future property taxes for either a fixed or indefinite period of time. You can choose to pay 0% (full deferral), 25%, 50%, or 75% of your delinquent and future property taxes.
