Illinois Circuit Breaker Property Tax Relief

The Circuit Breaker Property Tax Relief program provides rebates to qualified seniors for rent, property taxes or nursing home charges. The amount of Tax Relief is relatively minor. Seniors with income of less than $10,000 a year can expect rebate amounts ranging from $250 to $700.

To be eligible, tax filers must be Illinois residents, 65 or older (or 63 if widowed), and have paid property tax, rent or nursing home charges in the year in which they are filing taxes.

For additional information, call 800-624-2459 or visit the Illinois Circuit Breaker website. Seniors can also apply for Circuit Breaker Property Tax Relief online.
