Texas Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption

Administered by Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts · comptroller.texas.gov

Property tax exemption for Texas veterans with a service-connected disability. The amount depends on VA disability rating: 10% to 29% rating = $5,000 off assessed value; 30% to 49% = $7,500; 50% to 69% = $10,000; 70% to 99% = $12,000. Veterans with a 100% disability rating OR rated as totally unemployable by the VA receive a TOTAL exemption on their primary residence (no property tax owed at all - one of the most generous benefits in the country). The partial (10% to 99%) exemption can be applied to ANY one property the veteran owns, not just their homestead. 100% disabled veterans may apply up to 5 years after the delinquency date for a retroactive refund.
