House Bill 1802 amends the Tax Code to extend the deadline by which a property owner seeking to appeal an appraisal review board order through binding arbitration must file a completed request for binding arbitration and the requisite arbitration deposit to the 60th day after the date of receipt of notice of the order. The bill prohibits the comptroller of public accounts from rejecting such an application unless the comptroller delivers written notice to the applicant of the defect in the application that would be the cause of the rejection and the applicant fails to cure the defect by a certain deadline. The bill authorizes an applicant to cure such a defect at any time before the expiration of that deadline, without regard to the deadline for filing the request for binding arbitration.
