How to apply for Senior Property Tax Freeze (SB 190) — Texas in Missouri

Texas County (program authorized by RSMo 137.1050, adopted by county action)

Who it's for

Texas County has adopted Missouri's senior property tax credit (SB 190): homeowners 62 or older can freeze the real-estate tax bill on their primary home, so it stops rising in later years. Texas County publishes a senior property tax credit application. 'Tax Credit Application' is a standing top-of-page link on the county homepage pointing at Texas-County-Tax-Credit-Application.pdf. Apply through the county's program office.

The freeze applies only to the primary residence, requires an application with Texas County (often annually), and county rules control what is frozen and any home-value limits — the county makes the final determination, so this shows as a may-qualify result.

People who qualify for one senior program often qualify for others. See everything you may qualify for — free, no SSN, about five minutes.
