§ 54:4-8.
No deduction, as provided herein, shall be allowed except upon written application
therefor, which application shall be on a form prescribed by the Director of the Division
of Taxation, in the Department of the Treasury, and provided for the use of claimants
hereunder by the governing body of the municipality constituting the taxing district
in which such claim is to be filed and the application has been approved as provided
in this act. As to claims for exemption from taxation filed with an assessor on or before November
1, 1963 on forms prescribed by the director, the assessor shall not require of any
person who has filed such a claim the filing of an application for a tax deduction
but shall approve such person for a tax deduction if it appears from the claim for
exemption from taxation that such person meets all the other prerequisites required
by this act for the approval of the tax deduction. Each assessor may at any time inquire into the right of a claimant to the continuance
of a deduction hereunder and for that purpose he may require the filing of a new application
or the submission of such proof as he shall deem necessary to determine the right
of the claimant to continuance of such deduction.
