Frequently asked questions
- How do I complete the ownership affidavit?
- Enter the requested owner and property details, then sign the affidavit under oath before a notary. Complete the remaining application sections and escrow agreement as applicable.
- Do I need a notary for this application?
- The ownership affidavit includes a sworn-and-subscribed-before-me jurat, so the property owner must sign that affidavit before a notary.
- Can I sign the affidavit with an online notary?
- New Jersey permanently authorized remote online notarization and remote ink notarization for its own notaries in October 2021 (P.L. 2021, c.179; N.J.S.A. 52:7-10.9 et seq.). An authorized officer’s notarial act performed in another state has the same effect under N.J.S.A. 52:7-10.14. Use a commissioned online notary and confirm with the municipality if unsure.
- What fees and checks does the form list?
- The form lists application, educational training, publication, property-owner-list, and escrow fees. It directs applicants to submit two separate checks: one for application-related fees and one for the escrow amount.
