Assessment Period Owners of mobile homes on January 1st of each year are responsible for Mobile Home Local Services tax. The tax is calculated by multiplying the rate (based on the age of the mobile home) times the square footage of the mobile home. Annual Registration Each mobile home park owner is required to register with the County Clerk’s Office each mobile home entering such park within 5 days. Homes not located in a park must register with the County Clerk’s Office within 30 days of placement. Once a home is registered, a registration form is sent to the homeowner annually in January to update exemption status and billing information. Failure to register does not relieve tax liability. Senior or Disabled Citizen Exemption and Circuit Breaker Senior or disabled citizens may apply and receive an exemption which reduces their mobile home tax by 20%. Contact the County Clerk’s office for more information at 217-753-6725. Seniors and Disabled citizens may also apply and receive a grant to assist in paying taxes. Contact the Illinois Department on Aging at 1-800-624-2459 to make an application for Circuit Breaker.
