Tax Calendar
There are numerous important dates and deadlines during the tax year. Many, such as the January 1 assessment date, is specifically stated in the Texas Property Tax Code. Others, such as a property owner’s deadline to file a notice of protest, may depend on the date the chief appraiser performs an action (in this case, the date a notice of appraised value is mailed to the property owner). Each calendar entry is supported by a reference or references pertinent to the Texas Property Tax Code or Education Code Section(s).
