Harris County Appraisal District - iFile™ Online System

iFile™ - ONLINE SYSTEM

Please note: The early deadline for filing residential protests is indicated on your appraisal notice.  However, homeowners that miss
the early deadline may still file a protest without penalty until the later of May 31 or 30 days after the date their appraisal notice is mailed.  All other property owners must file their protest by the later of May 31 or 30 days after the date their appraisal notice is mailed.
If the applicable deadline has passed, you will be unable to use iFile™ to enter a protest.


Please enter your account number, iFile™ number and verification code to access the online system.

The iFile™ number is year specific and is only available on the property’s “Notice of Appraised Value” that is typically mailed to property owners during the spring of each year. The iFile™ number is printed in the upper right corner of the front page of the notice and may also be found in the upper right hand corner of the green “Notice of Protest” in that same mailing. Please make sure you have selected the correct year.
