Residential property owners must confirm homestead exemption

Residential property owners who are receiving a Homestead Exemption are now required to confirm that they still qualify for the exemption. This requirement was passed by the 88th Legislature in 2023 and is codified in Section 11.42 (h-1) of the Texas Property Tax Code.

A letter will be mailed out to approximately 20 percent of these property owners yearly.  The letter has specific instructions that must be followed if you are to continue receiving the Homestead Exemptions.

A copy of this letter is available on the website: www.gonzalescad.org.
