What happened
Governor JB Pritzker announced a temporary tax relief initiative for residents and businesses in 15 Illinois counties affected by summer storms. This relief allows those unable to file or pay taxes on time due to the severe weather to receive a waiver of penalties and interest by filing a request with the IDOR. Separately, applications for the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program open October 1 for eligible households needing help with natural gas, propane, and electric bills.
Why it matters
