Overview
Texas residents who have a homestead and are either age 65 or older or who are disabled qualify for a $10,000 homestead exemption for school district taxes. This is in addition to the $25,000 homestead exemption for all homeowners.

This factsheet explains how this transfer works and provides assistance in how to transfer the percentages. (2 pages)
