Cook County homeowners can appeal their property-tax assessments online at Article Link Here , the Chicago Tribune reported.

"This online filing system has made an incredible stride for making our agency a more accessible agency for taxpayers across Cook County who are interested in challenging the assessed values placed on their property," said Board of Review Commissioner Larry Rogers, Jr.

The filing system is open to homeowners and most property owners. Commercial property owners still have to file in person. However, Board of Review Commissioner Michael Cabonargi said the goal is to make the entire system paperless.
