Contact

The contact information and submission protocols on this page apply to inquiries directed to New Jersey Government Authority, a reference resource covering the structure, agencies, and operations of New Jersey's state and local government. Inquiries are accepted from researchers, professionals, members of the public, and journalists seeking clarification on coverage scope, source accuracy, or editorial corrections. This page does not connect to any official New Jersey state agency — for direct government services, contact the relevant agency listed in the applicable section of this site.

What to include in your message

Incomplete submissions delay review and reduce the likelihood of a substantive response. All messages should include the following elements:

1. Full name — First and last name of the individual or organization representative submitting the inquiry.
2. Contact email address — A valid address where a reply can be directed. Generic or role-based addresses (e.g., info@, noreply@) should be avoided where possible.
3. Page or topic reference — The specific page URL or topic area the inquiry concerns. For example, a correction request should identify the exact page such as New Jersey State Legislature or New Jersey Public Records – OPRA.
4. Nature of the inquiry — A clear description of the issue, question, or request. Correction requests should identify the specific claim in question and, where applicable, cite a named public source that contradicts or updates the published content.
5. Supporting documentation — For factual correction requests, attach or link to primary sources such as official New Jersey statutes (N.J.S.A.), agency publications, or federal regulatory documents. Unattributed assertions are not actionable.

Types of inquiries accepted:

• Factual correction requests with cited sources
• Coverage scope questions (what agencies, jurisdictions, or topics are included)
• Broken link or technical error reports
• Source attribution clarifications
• Partnership or syndication inquiries from institutional publishers

Types of inquiries not handled through this contact channel:

• Direct government service requests (permits, licenses, benefits, court records)
• Legal advice or regulatory interpretation
• Complaints directed at New Jersey state agencies or officials

For service-level government assistance, the How to Get Help for New Jersey Government page provides a structured breakdown of agency contact points by function.

Response expectations

Response timelines vary by inquiry type. Factual correction requests involving cited primary sources receive priority review. The following general timelines apply:

Submissions lacking a page reference, contact email, or any description of the inquiry may not receive a response. High-volume periods, particularly following major legislative sessions or New Jersey election cycles, may extend review timelines.

Corrections that are verified against named public sources — such as New Jersey Office of Legislative Services publications, the New Jersey Department of State official records, or statutes accessible through New Jersey's official legislature site — are prioritized for expedited editorial update.

Additional contact options

This reference site does not maintain a telephone line or physical public counter. All contact is handled through the submission form or the designated contact email address published on this page.

For inquiries that require official government response — such as Open Public Records Act (OPRA) requests — those must be directed to the custodian of records at the specific New Jersey government entity holding the records, as governed by N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq.. This site does not process OPRA requests and holds no official government records.

Journalists and academic researchers requiring source verification for published material are directed to submit inquiries with institutional affiliation noted. Attribution questions related to data published on specific agency pages — such as New Jersey Department of Health or New Jersey Department of Labor — should reference the primary agency as the original data source, with this site acknowledged as an aggregation and reference layer only.

How to reach this office

All formal inquiries should be submitted through the contact form available on this page. The form routes directly to the editorial review queue and generates a submission timestamp for tracking purposes.

For inquiries where a form submission is not suitable — such as detailed documentation attachments exceeding standard upload limits — direct email contact is available. The designated contact address for New Jersey Government Authority editorial and operational inquiries is:

Email: [email protected]

When emailing directly, the subject line should follow this format: [Inquiry Type] – [Page or Topic Name]. For example: Correction Request – New Jersey State Treasurer or Technical Error – New Jersey County Government Structure.

Submissions sent without a descriptive subject line are routed to a lower-priority queue and may experience delays of up to 10 business days before initial review. Duplicate submissions across multiple channels for the same inquiry do not accelerate response; they may instead fragment the review thread and delay resolution.
