DOCUMENTARY PROOFS: N.J.S.A.54:4-4.4 provides, Each assessor may at any time inquire into a 
claimant’s right to continue an exemption and for that purpose he may require the submission of such 
documentation as he considers necessary to determine the claimant’s continuing right to exemption. Claimants 
may be asked to provide: proof of income via audited financial statements, tax return copies; proof of ownership 
via deed; proof of use via lease/rental agreements, itinerary/calendar of events & organization’s promotional 
literature; proof of organization’s purpose via certificate of incorporation, articles of association, charter or 
mission statement, and constitution and by-laws.  
 
Burden of proof is on exemption claimant; it is not the responsibility of the assessor to seek out claimant or 
                                        to bring claimant into exemption compliance.
