Taxpayers may search Cook County’s records online to confirm exemptions to which they may be entitled. The search encompasses four tax years (2005-2008). Exemptions for the current tax year, if granted, are reflected on the Second Installment tax bill.

If a taxpayer did not receive exemptions to which they were entitled, they may apply to the Cook County Assessor’s office requesting a Certificate of Error application.

In the case where the granting of the exemption entitles the taxpayer to a refund, under the Illinois Statute of Limitations, the refund must be applied for no later than five years after the exemption is granted by the Assessor.

If your property is tax exempt, such as many churches and parks, it is not entitled to any of the exemptions listed in the Exemption History provided.
