A New Jersey rental application is a form that is completed by a possible tenant and provides the necessary information for a landlord to screen them before signing a lease. To fill the form, the tenant needs to enter all required personal information including income and employment details. Once they’ve viewed the tenant’s background information, the landlord will decide whether to approve or deny tenancy.
