Texas Disabled Person Property Tax Exemption
Texas Comptroller / Tarrant County Appraisal District
About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Texas Disabled Person Property Tax Exemption in its Fort Worth, TX research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Texas homeowners who qualify as disabled under Social Security standards receive an additional $10,000 school district exemption plus a school tax ceiling (freeze), similar to the Over-65 exemption. This prevents school property taxes from increasing as long as the disabled person owns and occupies the property.
School tax freeze prevents school taxes from ever increasing, valuable long-term benefit
Each program administrator alone decides its combination rules. The Grant Map has not verified those rules.
