Dallas County Offers Payment Plans for Overdue Property Taxes

If you cannot pay your property tax bill in full, Dallas County has a payment arrangement program for qualifying owners.

Dallas County Money & Taxes

The Dallas County Tax Office has a payment arrangement program for property owners who are behind on taxes. Penalty and interest continue to accrue, but a payment plan can help you avoid a tax lien suit.

Senior and disabled homeowners also have the option to defer paying taxes on their homestead under Texas law. A deferral puts a lien on the property but stops collection action while you live there. Check with the Tax Office at 214-653-7811 or at dallascounty.org/tax for current eligibility rules.
