Why was the Basic STAR Exemption removed from my tax bill?

If the total combined income of all owners and spouses residing on the premises is more than or equal to $250,000 you no longer qualify for the exemption. New York State will automatically enroll you in the STAR Credit program as long as your income is below $500,000.
