Board of Review is Open for Assessment Appeals for Palatine Township

Chicago—The Board of Review has set a deadline of December 12th for tax appeals for Palatine Township residents. Taxpayers may appeal their assessment for free with the BOR every year. Taxpayers who missed earlier workshops the Board and Palatine Township Assessor’s office held may appeal online at https://www.cookcountyboardofreview.com/ or at the Palatine Township Assessor’s Office. The BOR independently hears assessment appeals and has the authority to change assessments as a check and balance to the Cook County Assessor’s Office.

For tax year 2021, 537,000 of Cook County’s 1.8 million Property Index Numbers (PINs) were appealed and 51 percent of individual residential filers saw reductions in their assessments. The only requirement for a taxpayer to appeal a property assessment is a completed complaint form filed before the township appeal period closes. Taxpayers will have the option of filing a complaint online at www.CookCountyBoardofReview.com.

“The Appeals Workshops bring the services of my office directly to residents, providing more transparency and fairness in the property assessment appeal process,” Commissioner Cardenas said. “Our workshops educate the public about the appeals process and offer property owners the opportunity to appeal their assessments, provide evidence, and talk with analysts without taking time off of work and coming downtown,” added Commissioner Cardenas. “We want the property tax appeals process to be fair, open, and convenient to all Cook County residents.”
