1. The Harris Central Appraisal District determines the value of all properties, grants exemptions and certifies values to the taxing units.

2. The governing bodies of taxing units, such as the School Board or City Council, review budgets and then set the tax rates which determine how much taxes are due on each property.

3. The Tax Assessor-Collector calculates how much you owe for each taxing unit, prepares and sends bills, collects monies due and disburses the funds to the appropriate taxing unit.

You are still responsible for payment of your property taxes even if you have not received a copy of your property tax statement(s). Please call (281) 891-6160 to receive a payment amount for your property taxes.

Timely Payment Of Property Taxes:

Property taxes are due upon receipt. You have from October 1 through January 31, to pay the Current Year Taxes without penalty or interest. Action by Mail is timely if: (1) it is sent by regular first-class mail, properly addressed with current postage prepaid; and (2) it bears a post office cancellation mark of a date no later than the specified date due. If you wait until the last day of the month, please make sure all requirements are met. There are no exceptions.

*On February 1, all unpaid current taxes become delinquent. Penalty and interest are added to the original base amount and continue to increase until taxes are paid. 15% additional penalty added to accounts under suit.

By Law, the Tax Assessor-Collector cannot waive penalty and interest on delinquent taxes, adjust values, or ignore deadlines established in the Texas Property Tax Code.

Various Payment Options:

If before the delinquency date an individual who is disabled or at least 65 years of age and is qualified for an exemption under Section 11.13(c) pays at least one fourth of a taxing unit’s taxes imposed on the property that the person owns and occupies as a residence homestead, the person may pay the remaining taxes timely without penalty or interest. The first installment is due by January 31, remaining payments by March 31, May 31 and July 31. **There are strong penalties set by the state for failure to pay each installment timely.**

Check Payments - Your check will be converted into an electronic fund transfer.
