1. How do I protest my value?
To protest an appraisal value set by DCAD, a taxpayer must notify the appraisal district in writing by May 31 or 30 days
from the date of the Notice of Appraised Value. If the appraisal district generated no Notice of Appraised Value, a
protest may still be filed. The Notice of Protest need not be an official form; however, the appraisal district can send
you a Notice of Protest form to complete and submit. You can submit a signed letter stating the protesting property owner's name,
identifying the subject property and indicating an apparent dissatisfaction with some determination of the appraisal district.
2. What is the Appraisal Review Board?
The Appraisal Review Board or ARB is a group of private citizens authorized by state law to resolve protest disputes
between taxpayers and the appraisal district. An ARB is established for each appraisal district in the State of Texas.
3. Can anyone attend an ARB hearing?
Yes. They are open to the public and a schedule is posted daily at the DCAD.
