PROP TX-CREDIT CARD PAYMENT
HB 1061 amends the Texas Property Tax Code to allow property owners to pay overdue property taxes using credit cards when redeeming their property from tax sale. This directly affects homeowners and property owners who need to pay delinquent taxes to avoid losing their property. The key provision adds credit card payment as a permitted method for redemption payments, expanding payment options beyond cash or check without changing tax amounts or deadlines. The bill makes no other changes to property tax rules or procedures.
