2Cook County Treasurer
“W HY IS IT IM P ORTAN T TO SUBM I T PR OOF OF P AYM EN T?”
The Office of Cook County Treasurer M aria Pappas helps hom eow ners and other tax payers
obtain refunds they are entitled to receive.
Please note that property-tax paym ents are m ade on a Property I ndex Num ber (P I N) that
represents the legal description of your hom e or other property. Various parties m ay have
paid tax es on that P I N. Because of different circum stances, refunds can go to the current
ow ner, past ow ner, or a third party. Proof of paym ent is required to ensure that refunds go
only to those w ho paid the tax es. Proof of paym ent helps prevent those w ho file fraudulent
claim s from obtaining a refund.

Your bank statement indicating the successful transfer of funds to the Cook County Treasurer's Office

HELPFUL TAXPAYER TIP: One shortcut for proof of a mortgage company payment is to use a copy of
your IRS Form 1098. This record, which most taxpayers keep with their income-tax files, is the form
that the mortgage company sends to report the interest you paid and the taxes the company paid on
your behalf. This is especially useful if you refinanced, your loan was sold, or the mortgage company
for a past tax year cannot be contacted. Be sure to submit the correct calendar year copy of the IRS
Form 1098 record . (For example, the 2013 property taxes were due in calendar year 2014. As such,
your 2014 IRS 1098 form would be your proof of payment for the 2013 property taxes in most cases.)
IF YOU PAID MULTIPLE PARCELS WITH ONE CHECK
For each refund requested, a list of the PINs paid with that check must be provided with a copy of the
•
front of the check for the installment(s).
