Benefits for Disabled Veterans in Texas

Texas is one of the best states for veterans. It offers programs that can save you money and give you access to housing, education, and healthcare.

The property tax exemption is a significant benefit for disabled veterans. If you have a disability rating from the VA, you may not have to pay all or part of your property taxes. Veterans receiving 100% VA disability compensation (a 100% rating or Individual Unemployability) may qualify for a total exemption on their residence homestead after applying with their county appraisal district.

The Hazlewood Act provides another valuable opportunity, offering up to 150 hours of free tuition at public colleges and universities in Texas. This benefit isn’t just for you – it can also be used by your children or spouse in some cases, making it a powerful tool for your family’s future.

Through the Texas Veterans Land Board (VLB), you’ll find support for buying land or homes with low-interest loans. They also provide home improvement loans. The VLB’s state veterans’ homes deliver professional care with the respect our veterans deserve.

How These Benefits Work Together

Texas veteran benefits can stack. A veteran with a 100% disability rating who makes Texas home can qualify for a full property tax exemption on their homestead, which can save thousands of dollars a year.

The Hazlewood Act can cover college tuition for an eligible child, and the Texas Veterans Land Board offers loans to buy land or a home. Used together, these programs can make a real difference in a family’s budget.

How to Apply for Benefits

Applying for these benefits is straightforward when you know where to start:

For property tax exemptions, contact your local appraisal district to apply.
For Hazlewood Act benefits, talk to the financial aid office at your college or visit the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.
For land or home loans, reach out to the Texas Veterans Land Board.
Organizations like the Texas Veterans Commission can guide you through the paperwork and make sure you get what you need.
