26 Jul I made an error on the PAS-1. What should I do?

Q. I made an error on the PAS-1 return that I submitted. What should I do to amend the form PAS-1?

— Concerned

A. Mistakes happen.

The PAS-1 is the combined application for ANCHOR, the Senior Freeze and Stay NJ benefits.

Do not submit another application. Doing so will cause delays and probably cause confusion because the Division of Taxation would have to consider two separate applications.

Instead, contact the agency directly.

You can call (888) 238-1233. We know it can be hard to get through to a person, though.

So you can instead visit a Regional Information Center for in-person support.

The deadline to submit — or correct — a PAS-1 is Nov. 2, 2026.
