Appeal Procedures
your land), the deadline is before the 30th day after the notice
of the determination was mailed to you.
For ARB changes (the ARB has informed you of a change that
increases your tax liability and the change didn’t result from a
protest you filed), the deadline is before the 30th day after the
notice of the determination was mailed to you.
(You may insert deadline for protests concerning omitted
property if doing so would avoid taxpayer confusion.)
If you believe the appraisal district or ARB should have sent
you a notice and did not, you may file a protest until the day
before taxes become delinquent (usually February 1). The ARB
decides whether it will hear your case based on evidence about
whether a required notice was mailed to you.

Usual Deadline
On or before May 31 (or 30 days after a notice of appraised
value was mailed to you, whichever is later).
Late protests are allowed if you miss the usual deadline for good
cause. Good cause is some reason beyond your control, like a med-
ical emergency. The ARB decides whether you have good cause.
Late protests are due the day before the appraisal review board
approves records for the year. Contact your appraisal district for
more information.
Special Deadlines
For change of use (the appraisal district informed you that you
are losing agricultural appraisal because you changed the use of
