New Jersey Statutes Title 54. Taxation 54 § 4-3.6c

The governing body of each municipality, by ordinance, may, upon a showing of good cause as to why a timely claim was not filed, return all taxes collected on property owned by one or more associations or corporations organized exclusively for charitable or religious purposes, which would have been exempt pursuant to R.S. 54:4-3.6 had timely claim been made therefor; provided, however, that no refund shall be made if more than 3 years have passed since the last date for filing a timely application. No interest shall be paid by the municipality on any refund made pursuant to this section.
