Apply for the Senior Citizen Homestead Exemption through the Cook County Assessor. Requirements: age 65+, ownership of the property, and it being your primary residence. Some seniors are enrolled automatically—check your bill or record first. Otherwise apply online, by mail, or in person, with proof of age, residency, and ownership. Best to apply as soon as you turn 65.
