ANCHOR is a property tax relief program here in New Jersey. Homeowners receive like $1500 and renters get $450. It has been in effect for a few years. The first year I had to apply and received the money directly deposited into my checking account. Last year I didn't have to re-apply and the money was again deposited directly.
This year I didn't have to re-apply and. . . I've been waiting on that deposit. They started going out weeks ago. I started questioning whether I was supposed to apply again. I checked the status 2 weeks ago and it said that my application was being processed. Okay. I've been checking my account balance every morning and no joy.
I checked the mail today and discovered a paper check from the state of NJ. Yup it was the ANCHOR payment. I have no clue why they sent me a check when my banking information hasn't changed but I am happy to receive it in any case. Every little bit helps.

Could be some kind of computer error. You got the money so that's the main thing.

Good for you and you're right every bit does help, How are the animals and what are you all doing for Halloween?

We occasionally get a 'gift' from the government to help with electricity or whatever. It's always good to get a bit extra.
