Section 1910.88  Use of Facsimile Machines

Any document containing 100 pages or less may be filed by facsimile transmission sent to the Property Tax Appeal Board at its designated number, provided that, within 5 days after the facsimile filing, the original document is submitted to the Board.  The date imprinted on the document by the Board's telefax machine shall have the same effect as the United States Postal Service's postmark.  The party filing a document by facsimile transmission bears the risk that the transmission will not be successful.  The date imprinted on the transmission confirmation document by the sender's telefax machine may be presented as evidence of successful transmission and the filing of the document.  The facsimile filer shall ensure that any document is filed with the Board in a timely manner.  For purposes of this Section, "facsimile document" means a paper document transmitted to the Board from either a facsimile machine or a personal computer with facsimile capability.
