Illinois Property Tax

The Property Tax Appeal Board (PTAB) is a quasi-judicial body in Illinois that hears appeals from taxpayers and taxing bodies who are dissatisfied with property assessments. The Board is made up of five members appointed by the Governor and a professional staff. Its jurisdiction includes all counties in Illinois and it primarily considers appeals after decisions from County Boards of Review. The burden of proof before the Board varies depending on the basis of the appeal. The Board can only determine the correct assessment of property based on equity and the weight of the evidence. It has no jurisdiction over the amount of a tax bill or the tax rate used in its calculation, or the ability to exempt property from taxation. Source
