Hoping someone can help me wit this, as the NYS dept of finance is not taking calls till Nov 17th.
My sister passed away in late 2007, recvd STAR rebate check for 2007. The property was sold in February of 2008. NYS sent a check for 2008 STAR rebate to the properties address and it was forwarded to me. I checked w/ the accessor and their records do show the sale and the new owner on their tax map. I checked the property at the counties website and it is up do date with the new owners as well.
Anyone know what I should do with the check? Just send it back w/ as death certificate and explanation? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
