Texas Property Tax Exemption for Surviving Spouses and Children of Disabled Veterans

Local Texas county appraisal district (tax assessor or collector)
The same exemption amount the veteran qualified for, from $5,000 to $12,000 of property value

You can claim the disabled veteran property tax exemption that a veteran qualified for after the veteran dies. An unremarried surviving spouse can claim it, and so can an unmarried child under 18.

Check eligibility

How to apply

File the Texas Disabled Veteran’s or Survivor’s Exemption Application, Comptroller Form 50-135, with the county appraisal district where the property is located, not with the state.

What you'll need

The veteran’s death certificate and VA rating documentation, your marriage certificate or proof that you are the veteran’s child, and proof that you own the property.

Eligibility

  • You own property in Texas
  • You are the unremarried surviving spouse of a disabled veteran who qualified for this exemption, or you are that veteran’s unmarried child under 18 years old
