How does an organization apply for a property tax exemption?

To apply, your organization should complete one of the following three applications, available from the chief county assessment officer (CCAO). 

  • Charitable organizations should complete Form PTAX-300, Application for Non-homestead Property Tax Exemption. 
  • Federal and state agencies should complete Form PTAX-300-FS, Application for Federal/State Agency Property Tax Exemption. 
  • Religious organizations should complete Form PTAX-300-R, Application for Religious Property Tax Exemption.

Submit the application along with all required documents, to the board of review of the county in which the property is located. The board will hold a hearing and evaluate all of the information submitted before making a recommendation. All of the documents are then forwarded to the department for a final determination. This decision is final unless the applicant or another party to the matter requests a formal hearing.
