The maximum income you can earn to be eligible for a PT AID payment plan will increase to $107,300 as of January 1, 2025.
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.
To determine the best payment plan for you, use the payment plan screening tool.
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. For more information, including terms and conditions, download an application from the list below.

The Department of Finance defines "extenuating circumstances" as involving the death or serious illness of a property’s owner or immediate family member, loss of income, or enrollment in the Department of Environmental Protection’s Water Debt Assistance Program.
