My tax bill last year was reduced by a homeowner, senior citizen, or disabled exemption. Why
don’t these exemptions appear on my first installment bill?
A property’s eligibility for property tax exemptions can change from year to year. Eligibility determinations for exemptions have not been made yet, but they will be made by the time second installment bills are issued. At that time, exemption-related savings will appear on tax bills.

In tax year 2024, I tried to reduce my taxes by filing an appeal. If my appeal is successful, when
will the results appear on my bill?
The results of a successful appeal for tax year 2024 will appear on this year’s second installment tax bill.

How can I pay my first installment bill?
If your property taxes are paid by a mortgage company, you should not pay the bill yourself. You should, however, check to make sure the mortgage company pays the bill.

If you pay the taxes yourself, you can mail in your payment or pay it online at www.cookcountytreasurer.com. You can also pay the bill in person at the Cook County Treasurer’s downtown office or at any Chase Bank branch in the Chicagoland area.
