Welcome to the Will County
Clerk's Tax Extension Web Site.
The Tax Extension
Department accepts the filing of the annual
budgets, levies, financial reports, and boundary changes of all taxing
bodies and calculates the tax rates and extensions for each unit of government.
The Forfeiture/Tax Sale Redemption area of the office collects
payments for delinquent taxes.
Will County property
taxes for 2007 totaled $1,419,131,020.37, an increase of 8.3% when
compared to last year. Between 2005 and 2006, the increase was
11.2%.
The total assessed
value of all property in Will County increased 10.8% to 20.348
billion in 2007, up from 18.358 billion in 2006.
For 2007
tax, the average rate in the county decreased from $7.1377 per
hundred to $6.9743 per hundred, a drop of .1634, or 2.3% overall.
Tax rates drop when values increase faster than tax dollars
increase. That was the case again this year.
Most of the 250 taxing districts in the county
are limited by the Tax Cap Law, which is meant to slow the increase
of tax extensions (dollars). The law provides that a district can
only increase its tax by the rate of inflation (2.5% for this year),
and by the amount of new property in the district. Additional
increases must come from the voters in the form of referenda passed
at local elections.
