In an effort to assist more property owners and serve multicultural communities, CCAO has translated pertinent communication material in the top five languages spoken (other than English) in Cook County. These languages were identified by using results from the U.S. Census. Please download the following brochures available in English, Spanish, Polish, Chinese, Tagalog, and Arabic. 

  • Guide to Property Tax Savings 
  • A Guide to Understanding Property Assessment Appeals
  • How to Apply for Missing Property Tax Exemptions

If you are an organization servicing multicultural homeowners in Cook County and would like to partner with CCAO by hosting an informational session on property tax assessments for your community members, please contact our Outreach Team at  assessor.outreach@cookcountyil.gov
