Renewing Your Benefit

All not-for-profit organizations receiving the not-for-profit property tax exemption are required to renew the benefit annually. The purpose of renewing the benefit is to provide the Department of Finance with confirmation that the property continues to be used for exempt purposes. The due date to renew your exemption is always January 5 for the tax year that begins the following July 1.

The 2024-2025 renewal period has ended.

Information you may find helpful in filing your renewal:

• How to Create an NYC.ID Guide
• A User Guide to Not-for-Profit (NFP) Renewals

Once you have logged in, you will be guided through the renewal process, including several questions you must answer in order to confirm that your organization remains eligible for the not-for-profit property tax exemption. You can complete your renewal all at once, or save your work and come back to it later.

Once you have submitted your renewal, you will receive an email acknowledgment. You can make changes to owner information, such as the mailing address or contact name. (Be sure to make these changes before you submit your renewal form.) If you have forgotten your password or are having difficulty with the website, you may contact us.

Please be advised that DOF reviews all properties to determine if there are any immediately hazardous conditions. This includes Department of Buildings Class 1 violations, Stop-Work orders, and full or partial Vacate orders. If your property has any of these violations, DOF may deny your new or renewal application unless you are actively working to correct it.

Please note that if the property is sold, the new owner must file a new application for the not-for-profit exemption if they believe they qualify.
