About New Jersey Public Bond Claim Form

When working on any New Jersey  public works project, claimants may file a Public Bond Claim against the project payment bond at any time before the expiration of one year from the claimant’s last date of furnishing labor and/or materials to the project. However, a lawsuit to enforce the claim must be filed at least 90 days after the bond claim and within 1 year, so the earlier the better.
