Update (April 24, 2026): Good news! Cook County has extended the property tax exemption filing deadline. Residents are encouraged to apply as soon as possible, as we do not know the new deadline.
As the requirements for each type of exemption varies, please refer to the list below so you are prepared when visiting the Township Assessor’s Office.
** Homeowner and Disabled Persons Exemptions: you must be on the deed as of January 1st of the tax year for which you are applying.
All the above exemptions require that you are on the deed to the home. It may not be a rental and must be your primary residence. Necessary documentation must be in paper form; we cannot view documents on your cell phone or laptop. If applying for previous other years, please call the office.
The Township Assessor’s Office is open Monday-Friday, 8:30am-5pm. Please note the Township will be closed Friday, May 1. Questions? Call 847-285-4570.
Residents can now apply for 2025 property tax exemptions. The Township Assessor’s Office can assist with applications for homeowner, senior, senior freeze, disabled persons, and disabled veteran (service-connected) exemptions.
If an exemption is approved for the 2025 tax year, it will appear on the second installment property tax bill this year, as all exemptions are applied to the second installment bill.
Homeowner, senior, and disabled persons exemptions automatically renew each year after the initial application. Senior Freeze and Disabled Veteran exemptions must be renewed annually. Residents renewing the Senior Freeze should wait for the blue renewal form from the Cook County Assessor; if it has not arrived by the second week of April, bring your 2024 tax return or 2024 1099 forms to the Assessor’s Office for assistance.
To apply for any exemption, homeowners must bring a driver’s license that was valid in 2025. If the license was issued in 2026, a bank statement from any month in 2025 must also be provided.
Residents who need help completing exemption applications can contact the Township Assessor’s Office at 847-884-0030 or visit for assistance.
