UPDATE: ANCHOR payments to hit some bank accounts Thursday morning, state says
The state has made improvements to the ANCHOR property tax benefit hotline, making the system more efficient — and less annoying — for taxpayers after a dismal call center performance earlier this year.
The marked improvement is based on state data and an unscientific series of calls to the hotline by NJ Advance Media in the weeks before the state’s announcement that first batch of direct deposit payments to homeowners and renters would hit bank accounts Thursday morning and paper checks would start going out next week.
