Illinois Property Tax PIN required

The State of Illinois has made a change on the 2009 Schedule ICR which affects those residents who pay property taxes on their principle residence. You must enter your PIN (Property ID Number) on line 4b, 4c, and/or 4d (if your principle residence is on adjoining plots of land). The PIN number is not required on prior year tax returns. If you own more than one property (residence), you are only allowed to take the property tax credit for your MAIN residence on the Illinois tax return.
