New Portal User Account

Register to use the Portal – Every user will first need to register a new account by entering and confirming an email address. 

Note: If you already have an existing tax exemption, it is very important to use the email address that is already associated with your tax exemption.

If you have an organization account on Google, Apple, or Microsoft that uses the same organizational email address that you use to manage your tax exemption, you may use that account to authenticate your email address instead of entering it manually. This will allow you to skip  the email authentication step.

Start by selecting the Register Now link – Enter your organization’s email address on the next screen.

Next Steps

New Users - If you are a new user who has never created a tax exemption, your user account must be approved by the office of the Auditor before you can proceed.

Once you have been approved for an account, you will receive an email that will tell you that you have been allowed access to the CRE portal.

You will then be able to log back into the Portal and begin the process to create a New Organization account.

Current Users – If your organization already has an existing exemption account, you will be able to log in immediately to the Portal and manage your account. See the next section about the Annual Renewal Process.
