Property owners have the right to protest actions concerning their property tax appraisals. You may protest if you disagree with the appraisal district value or any of the appraisal district's actions concerning your property.

Harris County property tax bills can be paid by touch-tone phone at any time from any place in the world, seven days a week. The phone number for making property tax payments is 713-274-2273. Property taxpayers may use any combination of credit cards and/or e-Checks for payment.

This local option exemption cannot be less than $3,000. To qualify for the age 65 or older residence homestead exemption, the individual must be age 65 or older, have an ownership interest in the property and live in the home as his or her principal residence.

Age 65 or older and disabled exemptions: Individuals age 65 or older or disabled residence homestead owners qualify for a $10,000 residence homestead exemption for school district taxes, in addition to the $40,000 exemption for all homeowners.

At an informal protest, you simply need to present data on your home to your appraisal district. In most cases, you can simply visit your appraisal district office and wait to meet with an appraiser. The number one recommendation for winning an informal protest is simple – be kind.

Property Tax and Appraisals The Texas Tax Code, Section 33.06, allows taxpayers 65 years of age or older to defer their property taxes until their estates are settled after death.

Over 65/Disabled Deferral If you are a homeowner age 65 or over or disabled, you can stop a judgment or tax sale, or defer (postpone) paying delinquent property taxes on your homestead for as long as you own it and live in it. To postpone your tax payments, file a tax deferral affidavit with your appraisal district.

Contact the Harris County Tax Office at 713-274-8000 or Autotdmv@hctx.net and we'll help you resolve the problem.

Generally, the deadline to file an application for an exemption is April 30. You may file a late application for a residence homestead exemption, including age 65 or older or disabled, up to two years after the delinquency date.

If you are dissatisfied with your appraised value or if errors exist in the appraisal records regarding your property, you should file a Form 50-132, Notice of Protest (PDF) with the ARB. In most cases, you have until May 15 or 30 days from the date the appraisal district notice is delivered — whichever date is later.
